Keep OS on separate drive to data drive
Keep a back image of the OS, for quicker re imaging


Backup most important, hardest to get back


-Apps - There are lots of apps on 1 dvd size, but it is hard to download all again but easy to backup
backup difficulty - 1
recovery level - 5
impact = 4

-Movies - Easy to get back, but rare ones harder, the difficulty is the large file size
backup difficulty - 3
recovery level - 4
impact = 5

-TV - contains more episodes than movies so it is a bit more time consuming to get back or it might be offline

-Games - Difficulty is due to the large file size, takes long to re download
