Singlestack Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 I want to clone my drive. OS, aps, Outlook, everything. My C drive is 4 years old and I think it hiccuped yesterday. Scared me to death. I did some looking around and I found a product that claims to do what I want. It is Acronis True Image 11 Home. Anybody have any experience with this product or have a better idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwmiket Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 I've always used Ghost. Looks like that does the same thing. Having a solid backup is a necessity, so this is a good plan. -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vluc Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 +1 on Acronis. Used it to upgrade from an 80 gig to a 120 gig HD. Worked like a charm. Wonderful to use, easy. I used Ghost and others in previous years but TrueImage does it better, and provides more services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liota Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Partition Commander gets my vote. It was simple and quick. Liota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisK Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Symantec Ghost, plain and simple. Unless there are programs on it that you no longer have copies of and can't live without, I wouldn't do it. If the hard drive is hiccuping you could also have some bad clusters that can give products like this a headache as well. If you trully want your machine running at it's best. It's best to install Fresh OS and applications and copy your data over. Ghost and Powerquest are good imaging products, but I've seen them fail on bad drives. They are more for using in test environments where you install various software test and need to rebuld again. Just my $.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
