Re: Ghost 10 sucks for drive cloning....

Specifically for hard drive cloning, I really like
Casper XP. Like Ghost, it can clone either
one entire HD to another HD (useful to upgrading
to a larger HD), or it can clone a single partition
and put it on another HD that already has
partitions. (Acronis True Image cannot do the
latter. You have to make an image of the
partition and then "restore" it to the destination
HD.)

You can download a free 30-day trial copy of
Casper XP from:
www.FSSdev.com/products/casperxp/ .
