No a silly question - and a good suggestion. Hell, you could also scrounge
a second 10 GB drive to install into that PC you want to back up, and set
your backup to that extra drive.

It all depends on the configuration of that PC, and what the objectives are.

Is there an extra IDE? Does it have the newer USB or Fire wire? Etc...
