It has nothing to do with a backup of a Hard Drive. I guess what he's saying is get a Mac for Time Machine. While that's good backup built into the Mac, windows has alternatives for backing up, and the average price for a Mac I wouldn't pay just to get good backup software like Superduper or Time Machine. I'm done here. To end, I'll say that getting a Mac won't stop an external Hard Drive from failing or having other problems for that matter.
