Hi

Could running more than one disk imaging software (Macrium Reflect, Aomei Backupper, Easeus todo backup) on the same PC cause conflicts in a manner similar to running two antivirus software on a given PC ?

I am paranoid that should something fail I would not be able to recover from my image (hence creating images with several different software).

Thank you

As long as you're not trying to use them all at the same time, no, there won't be any conflicts. I do suggest that you test out the restore process using a spare HDD to make sure you can recover from a total drive failure. Pull the original disk and install the spare and try to recover onto that. Once you get it working, swap back the original HDD and you can feel confident that the backups work.

Seeing as they are not all actually 'running' at the same time, there are no issues.
