Backup software
I think with backup software I'd rather know something didn't work than use something that other people have reported errors on that I didn't see myself. The worst situation is thinking you have a good backup and finding out you don't really when your drive dies. Given persistent errors in things like syncing iCal and the address book to .Mac, and a few Leopard crashes, I'm not really sure I trust Time Machine. From my own experiences and looking at the Bombich user forums, I wouldn't necessarily say that CCC really does work better than the betas of SD; but CCC has been released anyway. You can backup documents, settings, and files a variety of ways to cover yourself if you don't rely on one product that turns out to be buggy.
