I would like to have a way (script or Bat file, remember them?) to automatically clone a disk by making an image of the hard drive C: to a secondary hard drive of my choice located in my local computer.

I've just upgraded from True Image 11. The Clone is very similar in 12. The addition of adding a choice to reboot or shutdown is GREAT.

I tried the sync files on the C: to files on my E: (Local Drive). It took at least 8 hours and almost brought my computer to it's knees. I don't have a gaming computer, but has moderate specs: MS Windows 7 64 bit SP1, Intel Core 2 CPU6600 @2.4 GHz, 3.0 GB Ram, NVIDIA GeForce 7300GS. Nothing to brag about, but not the slowest critter on the block. I have the start up slimmed down to the bear essentials. I use process explorer to check my routines to see who is using up the resources. When I try to sync, I can't do anything else. The CPU usage is 80-90%.

I tried finding out what the annual cost for online backup was and couldn't. I guess I have to wait until my free period is over. I'd rather not use the online backup anyway.

So far I haven't seen much of an advantage to me for what I want to do other than the automatic reboot after an image backup.

I don't care to backup to a file. I'd rather make an image, then if something happened to the C:, I could take the raid cable off that disk, reboot to the backed up hard drive and be back up withing 5 minutes or less. I'd have to then resolve the origianl C: problem, BUT the big thing is I am back up and have only lost information (data) since the last image backup.

Can I do an image backup like I described above?

Thanks

Bob,

You cannot automate the cloning function.

Typically, in Acronis True Image (ATI) linguo, we refer to:
- an image when it is a disk and partition backup. This creates an image file that needs to be restored (typically a restore is done with the recovery CD),
- a clone, when you use the clone function of ATI. Doing an image and restoring it is the same as cloning. Like restores, clones are best done with the recovery CD.

To have a ready to go disk, you would have to clone, disconneted the clone from the computer before rebooting into Windows.

Thanks for the verification. I guess I kind of knew that. Ha!

Yes, the boot disk is one of the first things I make. I've used it several times with True Image 11. It's GREAT!. Gets me back up and running in a minimum of time with the least bit of effort.

Thanks again,

Bob
