Acronis True Image 8.0

Fred Sabin, NJCC President, will present Acronis True Image 8.0, a backup drive image software program. This application can:

A) Disk Clone your current hard drive by copying its entire contents to another hard drive (either internal or external) that could be switched "as is" for use as the primary drive.

B) Disk Image your entire current hard drive contents to compressed image files that could be stored on the same hard drive, another hard drive, or other backup media (as CDs). These files could then be viewed and retrieved individually, and/or used to restore an entire hard drive to the exact status when the image was created.

Fred will use the software to "create" an image backup; "explore" the image; and "restore" a single file from it. He will also show the options for fixed image splitting (to CDs) and the Acronis Secure Zone. Finally he will explain incremental backups; create and demo the "boot CD" option; and explain the "Disk Clone" option.

For more details see Fred's recent review of "Acronis True Image 8.0" on our NJCC Website, or go to the Acronis Website at: http://www.acronis.coml
