    Hi there. I'm trying to make a backup for my M1530 in a flash drive (with drivers and "essential" software)

    Right now I have all these drivers downloaded from Dell.

    Is there anything else I need to download, in case I needed to format??

    (And also, is there anything NOT NEEDED? Like... Matrix Storage? :S)

    What "essential" software do you recommend for the

    WWWWWWWWWWWWhhhhhhhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? Dell gave you a driver recovery CD for a reason. Or, just go to Dell's support website, type in your service tag, go to the downloads and download everything. You don't have to install it, just keep it around just in case (unless you need tons of extra space on your flash drive.
