But maybe it's just
me ...
No, I gave up on True Image after about 2006. A program like this
needs to be bulletproof, and it has just been too buggy for me in
versions after about 8. I'm using the new Ghost 15 for backup now,
but that is not foolproof either. However, it's the one thing that
has ever actually even vaguely reliably worked for me. The old
DOS-based v. 11, from the famous Hiren CD, I have also found reliable
for cloning drives.
On the Mac there's a program I like called Carbon Copy Cloner, but it
won't copy to NAS devices.
I have been experimenting, by the by, with high-end eSata cards and
find that though disk throughput is about double USB2, the cards are
too unreliable on my 2 year old Dell Inspiron 1720.
