I use Acronis Trueimage, and have used it several times. It's pretty user
friendly and can shrink or expand volumes to suit a new drive. It also can
do automated backups, but I don't use that feature. I think you can get a
free trial perion, although I bought it on sale for about $10 IIRC.
Seems like they might want to re-think diesel trucks, buses,
construction equipment etc.
Those engines tend to be bigger and dirtier than most cars.
I think a lot of the newer big diesel trucks are better than they used
to be but there still seems to be a fair amount of black smoke coming
