Capabilities?
Hi. I just rebuilt my home theater's file server when the HDD died. I threw in a $20 PNY 120GB SSD. I assume being TLC NAND it won't last more than few years most likely. Back in the day when I was a PC technician, I used Ghost. We'd build a machine, sysprep it then boot the Ghost client and have it image the drive over the network to the server where the Ghost image files would be created.
I'd like to do something similiar so when the drive croaks, I can just reimage it, rejoin the domain and be good to go. I don't want to do imaging to a local disk, I prefer to have it go across the network ideally. I also want a nice easy interface for deployment.
Will Acronis's imaging software do what I described?

Hello Ken,
as Steve correctly pointed out Acronis Snap Deploy 5 would be the recommended product for your use-case. Attached you'll find the datasheet highlighting the key features and system requirements. On the website you can download a free trial version.

Thanks. Booting a client is fine, that's what we did with Ghost. I'll check out the Snap Deploy product. Thanks again!
