Having had my HD rim itself last week, I cannot stress this enough. Luckilly, I only lost one quarter-done music project which is redoable easily, as I had pictures and music backed up, but it would have been catastrophic if I hadn't. I calculated 6 years of photos and 175GB of music and videos lost if I hadn't. Some of the vids are also very rare or unobtainable now.
