Well, there is a way to do a good backup. Make an image on the hard disk with CloneCD(I'd suggest using the "Game CD" profile). Test the image with Daemon Tools or Alcohol120%. If that image works, compress it using winrar and write that archive on a cd. Sure, if you want to use it you have to decompress it to the hard disk and use Daemon Tools/Alcohol120%, but it IS a backup on cd and it will always work, even if your writer is not safedisc compatible. I do this for some of my own originals, since I don't have a safedisc 2 compatible writer either.
