Image backup software

Guest2 · 3 Jan 2014 at 19:46

I currently just using Windows 7 'backup and restore' to backup my OS SSD 128gb drive > 150gb drive having created an image and recovery CD

Am I better off using a free alternative such as Clonezilla or some other software?

Is Macrium reflect free? I can only see a 30 day trial version

Installed the free/trial version with the download agent now. 205mb is pretty beefy for a backup utility isn't it?

It gets this - reflectdl.exe

I then select 'Free' and there are no other options, its starts downloading 205mb :confused:

Ive found a free 42mb link here - http://www.snapfiles.com/downloads/mreflect/dlmreflect.html

Downloading much quicker than that crappy macrium downloader

hmmm, I installed it wanted me to download another 170mb for a backup image.

I'll stick with Windows backup and recovery. I just created an OS drive image in literally 5 clicks and a 15 minute wait

Thanks anyway guys
