The server version however is ludicrously expensive, as is Paragon's. It's not that expensive that I'd bother shopping around for something else. It has a more professional, sys admin feel to the UI and options than True Image and does all the tasks one is likely to need pretty well. I can see why they are market leaders to be honest. I've gone for Acronis Backup and Recovery Workstation with the Universal Restore option. it would go through the process but when I went to look at the new drive the partitions were there but they were showing up as RAW. In this case, Im choosing my C: drive because it is the drive Im swapping out. Launch Macrium Reflect from your Start menu, desktop or taskbar. I used Paragon for a while but had problems restoring whole disk images with multiple partitions - such as a laptop complete with recover partition. Macrium Reflect free offers a number of features, including the ability to create back ups of entire systems, to schedule, and to restore systems from reserve coping.Could be wrong about that but I couldn't find it.

I trialled O&O and whilst it mostly worked out fine, I had problems getting it to mount images of dynamic disk mirror sets.Įaseus seems like the best free option but does not appear to have the option to ignore bad sectors whilst producing image files, only when doing a disk-to-disk clone.
