Hi Jeremy, Yes I had issues with Ghost 9 not recognising RAID configurations and onboard NIC's so when I needed to recover a crashed disk, I had a hell of a job. Also using the recovery CD was painfully slow.
I've now moved to Acronis True Image 9 Workstation and agree that it's a brilliant product. Backing up to a local drive as well as a drive on my network server. The only issue I have with it is the differential backups tend to fill up hard drives eventually and it would be nice if it would clean them up after doing a weekly full backup.

Had to put a new HD in my laptop lastnight, smallest I could get (because the supplier didnt have anything else) was a 100GB drive...oh well :-) I need to ghost my old drive to me new one, but since I didnt have quite the latest Nort. Ghost, I had all sorts of issues with SATA drives etc. etc. agh....it just got REALLY messy.....then I remembered this discussion a few months back and ended up downloading "Acronis True Image 9.0 Home" and MAN !! what a tool !! Its a great product ! I was coding as it ripped the old HD and coding as it wrote the new one...AND the fetures it has are fantastic. i..e the differentual images etc. BUT before I buy it, who ever it was that mentioned they were usign it too, are you still using it? and is it as good as it seams? The $45 price tag it really tempting too. Jeremy
