To copy/backup GPS:
Plug unit into your computer and log the drive that now shows up on your computer.
Copy everything in that directory to wherever you wish to backup/copy to ON ANOTHER drive. Can be beneficial to keep an extra copy on a USB drive as well.

When you attach the USB cable to your GPS your computer should see it as another drive when you go to "My Computer".

To play it safe you could copy all of the contents from the GPS to your backup media.

Thanks. I was wondering if I needed to back it up. Looks easy to do...
