Casper works really well. I work in the IT field and use it quite a bit. Good for cloning a system while the system is on…….

Thanks for this.
I have used Acronis in the past, but wanted to try this with SmartClone tech. It took 3.5 hours clone my 100 GB drive, and only 15-30 minutes to clone again!
UNFORTUNATELY, the clone will NOT boot up via USB. Do I have to swap out my laptop drive to boot ?
I think Acronis allowed me to boot via USB.
Anyone have any suggestions ?

i never noticed ghost went away..
does it still work with new linuxes, as i have backed up pcs with linux and xp sp2 with it dont remember the version i used but got it somewhere
not that i ever bothered to put the same one back, i always put clean install, i am the free pc guy for a couple of friends

so any image prog work with linux, apples os, vista?

some people are not that cheap as you, #8. torrents are good for small files but try to d/l DVDs on public torrents. or even ISOs.

why posting useless rapidshare pay/limited links instead of putting up a simple torrent instead?

I’ve used Acronis a bunch but if you want something with no bloat CASPER is great. I’ve had zero problems with any disk clone it has done. Of course a FREE option is DriveXML by Runtime software.

If there is any other program similar to Acronis TrueImage I’ll choose it. TrueImage is suxx. And it fails much more frequent than Ghost (but now Ghost don’t support new hardware, I know =_=)

I concur with commneter# 1. I much prefer using ACRONIS as opposed to the othet top brand-name software on the market today.

Did Symantec quit this partition business line? They acquired Partition Magic just to kill it and continued to offer Ghost which is pure crap. Now, Ghost is not updated anymore. Good for us though!

thx, but…
what would you trust, a well known and working Acronis product or an unknown what not?

my choice will remain Acronis
