Modern System Back Up Questions (PC)
« on: July 29, 2014, 12:06:51 AM »
So I am reading about Acronis True Image, and am wondering if software like this can take a system installation, make an image of it, and copy it to another drive of the same size, but different model?

I need to transfer someone's entire system and would rather avoid formatting, installing Win 8, then trying to install everything and configure it how it was.

Hmm, according to one of my clients, Acronis failed to copy her libraires in Windows 8.
