Have just finished recovering 99% of my previous machine which has taken five days to do. Now I am giving serious consideration to data backup. Particularly as I now have a copy of Ghost 10 and Paragon's Partition Manager 6.0 which includes drive backup and system recovery.
However, some reviews really slate Ghost 10 yet still rate it better than Acronis, while others point out the difficulties of even getting the progs authenticated. Another review advises not to use Ghost 10 if you have sata drives and so on (which I now have). All very confusing.
What do other people use to save their precious HD data and for the subsequent incremental daily backups?
BTW. My new machine runs xp pro with a combination of sata storage for the new drives and something slower (uncertain what) for the older drives which were added to the new machine to aid the recent data transfer. Thus my new machine now has four HD's. The two older and smaller drives which are none sata can be removed since they are now redundant.
