Backing up C: drive
In order to create a “mirror image” of the C: drive in an external drive, which could be used in the event of a hard drive failure, I am using Backup > My Disks > New Archive > Full Backup. The result is a folder titled “My Backups” that holds a file titled “System_C_10_16_10.”
Am I doing the right thing?
Thank you.

Grover,
Thank you for your reply. I am using Acronis True Image Home 2010 and Windows XP Professional (SP3).
When I ran the back up. I checked Disk 1 with 1 NTFS particition.

It looks like you have what you need to restore to a new disk. The only you really know is to perform a test restore or at the very least, simulate performing the restore (when booted from the TI Rescue CD). It can be simulation all the way to where you must choose either to CANCEL or PROCEED. Be sure and choose Cancel when practicing.
