A related tip: I use a True Crypt (file) volume to store all my personal stuff, in particular a scanned version of everything ever sent to me in the post (tax stuff, bank stuff). I highly recommend this practice (scanning everything to an encrypted volume). The files stay organised - unlike my paper records ever did. It's trivial to have a complete copy of you're personal files at work... which can come in remarkably handy and of course it's secure and backing up is easy (just copy the file).
