Acronis True Image Premium is on sale for 54.99
http://www.acronis.com/en-us/personal/transfer-pc-files/I have a case so I could D/L Acronis and pick up a 1TB HD while I am out today.
Questions:
> The HD I am cloning is 750G, so a 1TB drive for backup should be right... right?
> Also, I don't have to worry about the speed of the backup drive, right? My drive now is 7200 RPM but the backup drive can be a cheaper 5500 RPM since I won't be running it to much, is that right?
> Should I look at Paragon instead? I noticed that these two offer the most features. I also want it to be easy to transfer or migrate to a new drive if this one fails.
I also noticed that some programs don't remove empty space between files. I guess that would be like doing a defrag while backing up and transferring to a new drive... I guess. I wish there was a program that would move all my programs to the OS drive, all my VSTs to one drive, and all my samples, MIDI and audio to another drive or folder. I didn't pay enough attention in the past and now have to scan about ten different places for VSTs... it works but it kinda bothers me. I'm going to fix it when I get a new DAW. My target is a new Studiocat October, 1 2014.
Thanks for the guidance!
