Recommended backup software
I purchased a new W7 Home Premium 64 bit and need to establish a backup procedure. I have a 1Tb "C" drive which has the OS, and I have a 2Tb internal HDD I use for media. I plan on purchasing an internal 3Tb HDD and an enclosure:Newegg.com - Rosewill RX358 RX-358-U3B Full Aluminum Cover, metal tray 3.5" Black USB 3.0 External Enclosure
and backing up to it.
I have used Acronis in the past and it has been hit and miss, and now looking through this site and others I see some problems with different size configurations/partitions when backed up with Acronis.
As I understand it partitions are seperate areas of a single disk or seperate disks (I ask so that I may understand the nomenclature) and this would apply to me it seems because I want to back up two seperate disks with a combined size of 3Tb to a single disk of 3Tb.
I've gotta get this right and I dont mind spending the money on a good solution, but first and foremost it cannot fail. I find that some programs are quite buggy with W7 64 bit.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
