hi,

yes you are correct.
casper makes an exact duplicate of a drive, including file allocation table, 
boot sector, etc. and yes, you have to do this shortly after you have your 
computer setup how you want it with all of your apps installed.
i purchased a thin 2.5 inch drive and small aluminum case that connects by 
usb.
if i ever have a major failure, this other drive can be connected and i am 
alive again very quickly.
of course, you have to be good enough to occasionally save your data as 
well.
total cost was about $50 for the drive, $15 for the enclosure and $50 for 
the casper program.
worst case, i can pop the door off of my laptop and swap the drives as well
