retrieval, and restoration of either full partition or partial
file backups of almost any computer or server via any standard
web browser to insure against disaster. The system, which uses
Acronis True Image as its disaster recovery cornerstone, can be
used by virtually any company or enterprise. It automatically
schedules full, differential or incremental backups via a
browser interface for a single system or thousands of
computers. laptop battery

appliance and enables restoring full partitions or selecting
files from each image in case of disaster. Using this
interface, the product provides access anytime and anywhere
there is an Internet browser and connection, allowing users to
instantly return their computers and their business to full
operating condition should a system suffer a logical or
physical failure. thinkpad

You also agree that: hardware
When you install the program in Windows, you're also
prompted to install a tool called PHYLock. This allows you to
back up files in use by the system by making a snapshot of them
at a given moment in time, so any changes made to the system
after that point are not reflected in the backup. (It's
also possible to boot Image for DOS and make a full system
image offline, but this way you can do the backup without
disrupting other work.) I backed up a basic 15GB image with 5GB
of actual data in about six minutes using the default
options. dual xeon
Restoring an image from scratch can be done in a couple of
different ways: You can restore within Windows to another
partition or you can boot a CD or floppy built with the program
to perform an offline restore. Backups can be restored from any
media you've copied them to, including a hard drive mounted
natively and available through BIOS or connected via a
USB/FireWire connection. However, you can't restore across
a network in DOS mode; you need to have the file available
locally in some form before it can be restored. The image files
created by Image for Windows are compatible with all other
Terabyte products, including BootIt Next Generation. storage
The single biggest drawback is the lack of an incremental
backup option. For instance, you can't make a snapshot of a
partition one week and then back up only the changed files the
next week; you have to back up everything at once. (There's
also no way to do individual folder backups.) This makes it
hard to use as a regular backup solution, unless you don't
mind staking out the time required to do a full system backup.
That said, Terabyte plans to include just such a feature in
their next major upgrade to the product. seagate
Norton Save And Restore
Norton Save and Restore is actually the newest version of
Norton Ghost; call it "Ghost 11.0, " if you want to.
Ghost itself was originally a standalone program, booted from
floppies, that was used to perform drive-to-drive and
computer-to- computer imaging. Symantec bought
the program, rebranded it Norton Ghost, and added features from
PowerQuest's Drive Image product (also bought by them).
Save and Restore keeps all the good things from Ghost, but
it's essentially an incremental upgrade and not an entirely
new product. computer sales
Backup and Restore protects entire drives but can also be
used to back up specific folders on demand. Right after
installation, S&R does several things to insure that
it'll be able to properly back up and restore the whole
system. The most important is a scan to determine whether a
number of different hardware drivers - mass-storage, network,
etc. - are available on the program's bootable recovery CD.
This insures that if you back up to an external device (such as
a USB-connected hard drive), you should still be able to access
the backed-up data without needing Windows. Any device drivers
not found on the recovery CD are listed in a report, so you can
determine if they're crucial or not. computer hardware
Also at installation, the program tries to automatically
create a set of backup policies - what to back up and where -
based on, among other things, what drives are available and
what user profiles are present. These can be changed at any
time, but the default values are pretty good: a full system
backup once a week, and a backup of the user's Documents
and Settings directory once a day. Backups, which are called
Recovery Points, can be set to happen on a schedule or whenever
certain conditions arise: an application install, for instance,
or whenever a user logs on or off. Any protected file or folder
will also have a right-click context menu that lets you see any
previously backed-up versions of that item; if you overwrite
something, for instance, you can roll it back to a prior point
in time. printers
Whenever it's time for a scheduled backup cycle and the
user is logged in, the program pops up a warning from the
System Tray to ask you if you want to do the backup cycle now.
If you say yes, the operation runs in the background, but you
can always call up the progress dialog for the backup operation
and move a slider that controls how aggressive S&R is at
using system resources. When I tried it, a full system backup
took almost exactly ten minutes; after that, backups took much
less time since they were stored incrementally. If you have a
Maxtor OneTouch external drive, S&R integrates directly
with the push-button backup system on the drive. technology
S&R has several ways you can do recovery. If your
system's damaged but still partly functioning (for
instance, if an application has gone south on you), you can do
a point-in-time rollback, which is similar to the way
Windows's own System Restore works except that it includes
user data (System Restore doesn't). If you want to recover
individual files or folders, you can explore individual
Recovery Points as if they were a mounted file system, restore
to a given Recovery Point, or search for a file or folder name.
If everything's been torched, you can boot the program CD,
connect the drive you have the backup on, and perform a full
system recovery that way. mainframe
Two other problems I had with Save and Restore are mostly
aesthetic and not really functional. One is the slow user
interface; it takes seconds on end for the program's main
menu to come up when it's invoked (a problem that I've
identified as being pretty endemic across the current line of
Symantec desktop products). The other is the annoying presence
of the Norton Protection Center icon, which is installed along
with S&R, and which you can't ever really seem to get
rid of. But these are minor quibbles, and really don't
detract from the program's ability to protect your system
well. samsung
Paragon Drive Backup 8 Personal
Paragon Drive Backup 8 Personal strongly resembles
Acronis' product - not only in its interface layout but the
way some of its features are implemented. The program's
main screen even looks a lot like Acronis True Image - a task
panel on the left side, a fully-annotated task list at top
right, and below that a panel with information about the
available disks in the system. From here you can kick off most
of the program's basic functions: making backups, restoring
a disk image, copying a whole disk, setting up a scheduled
task, or exploring an existing image to selectively extract
files. computer repair
I have used Ghost 2003 for my backups but always had
problems with some of my 8 (!) computers. A few days ago I
bought a Maxtor 80 Gb ext USB 1.1/2.0 hard drive. After
wrestling for hours with downloads from Ghost and installing
extra drivers from Ghost I finally got it to work on one
computer. (Ghost works ok here most of the time, with
partitions on the internal C: drive but last week one of my
laptops lost the HD and of course the Ghost backup). used computers
Ghost will not work with my old USB1 L10/10 Gb external hard
drive. After spending a few hours on google trying to find an
answer, and reading Ghost horror stories, I came across Acronis
True Image?.0. After spending an other hour looking at reviews
of that software I downloaded the Acronis software and put it
on a cd. They have a special for $9.00 for users of Ghost!!!
Now get this! That software works on All of my computers and
even the 4 year old USB 1, yes 1 not 1, 1 ext hard drive. And
it does it in Windows. network
It is however not very fast but that is a minor trade off
for me. The slow speed could be caused by my use of USB 1.1. I
use XP, 98 SE, 2K. The recovery CD or 5 floppies will work on
any computer or operating system or No operating system at all!
So unlike Ghost you only need one recovery cd. digital cameras
