| | As my family's computers age into obsolescence I typically back up the disks, use shred to securely erase data from the disks, then donate or re-use the disks/computers. My current technique for backing up the Windows disks is to mount the primary (non-boot) Windows partition, convert it to a squashfs filesystem, then squirrel that backup image away somewhere for safe keeping. I like this technique because squashfs filesystems are highly compressed and read-only by default, which is exactly what I want for a Windows backup that I'll probably never look at again.
