oh! alright. I am using Windows ME. I used quick restore. (The CD is with the whole package when I bought it). After restoring the whole computer to when i bought the computer state and upgrading the operating system to windows ME and installing the mcafee virus-scan, I noticed that I suddenly found an extra drive :E (backup of C). I wouldn't know what to do with it. I am really not familiar with backups.

Questions still remains:
1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of having a backup drive?
2. Would it lessen my memory storage? Would it affect the memory?
3. If I don't like the extra backup drive, how can I take it out from my computer folder?
