Backing up a dual boot system (one disk) three partitions

Thread needs solution

I have a Dual Boot system contained on 1 SSD.  I have found the tutorial on how to clone the SSD which is fine. 

I'm now looking for some guidance (if needed) on backing up the SSD drive in case of failure in the future.

Do I need to do anything special or should I just let True Image handle the job for me.

Peter, provided that you perform a backup of the entire SSD drive, including all hidden partitions, then you should be able to recover that backup to a new drive (or the same) in the event of encountering any problems in the future.

Backup is, in my opinion and that of many of the other MVP's, a safer option than relying on using cloning.

See KB 1540: Difference between Backup and Disk Clone which also includes video tutorials of by of these processes.
