Try the demo and test the backups. Also test the bootdisk for making
and recovering. Read their user forum to get some idea of the
bugs in the program. I have given up on it because it can't even read
SATA drives...
About Ghost.
Their seem to be Norton Ghost and Symantec Ghost versions.
(yes I know Norton is part of Symantec)
The Symantec stuff seems more high-end.
For me Symantec Ghost v8.2 Corp works well.
I only use the DOS part of Ghost so I create some floppies with it and
delete the rest of my HD.
If you dont have SATA drives older GHOST versions will work fine too.
