I've noticed the same thing about Disk Director, but since it's essentially a partition manager, I don't use it that much. TI is my favorite imaging tool; has been since version 7. I use it weekly, copying the images to a second internal drive and an external drive. I even bought the netbook version for a friend! Macrium Reflect is very good; the free version won't do incremental images/backups, IIRC. As always, imho, ymmv. Ron Moore |
