Keeping a Hot Backup of Your Mac Hard Drive | You don’t really understand the importance of backups until your hard drive crashes.

OS X comes with a handy tool that will let you create a live copy of your hard drive that can be started up and run just like it is your computer.

Nice. This solves one of the major problems with most backups by letting you get back to a workable state very quickly.
