Scheduled Image Copy

As referred to in a BING forum post, I have been considering setting up a RAID 1 array with two drives. However, I am not sure yet whether my motherboard will support the two PATA drives that I have available. As an alternative, I am wondering whether to schedule unattended automated copying (image) of the system partition to a backup drive. What I am uncertain about, because I haven't found it in the Image for Windows manual, is whether I can automatically do an unattedned delete of the old backup partition before placing the new image on the backup drive. Can anyone answer this?

I also have a small concern that, if I make daily copies (40GB) of the system partition will I rapidly "wear out" the drives :-)

Thank you.
