Hybrid drives are not supported by ATI?

Thread needs solution

I just purchased a laptop which has a 256 GB SSD drive and a 1 TB HDD.  I just did a search for how to restore a system with a hybrid drive, and found the article below, which says it is not possible.  Am I reading this right, that ATI cannot restore a PC which has a hybrid drive?

The Hybrid drive as mentioned in the kb article is not the same as your arrangement.  

That's a relief!  I'm backing up the new laptop to the cloud for the first time.  The backup size is 157 GB, and that's precisely how much disk space is used between the SSD and HHD drives.

Now I'm going to take my old laptop, restore it to factory defaults, then restore it from Acronis cloud.  There's an old saying in IT administration:

Backups are easy; It's the restores that fail.
