If you have a PC, then DiskImage is invaluable. With one click, you can create a perfect copy of your PC's hard drive—so if anything happens (theft, physical damage, virus, etc.) you can quickly and easily restore everything.
can this resize paritions? I'd like to squeeze the 1TB HD from my new Dell XPS 8500 into a 120GB SSD and then mount a pair of 2TB drive as RAID0 for a data disk.

got the links, but it's not working so far....
(you still have to make an account to get a serial)
Green for OP. Going to do some more research on the product but if it does what it says it can do it will be a valuable tool for me!

1) If you're trying to backup your files and/or drive, and have a Seagate or Western Digital hard drive, you can use the free, rebranded Acronis TrueImage provided by both companies (see their Support -> Downloads). Acronis has been around forever and you can upgrade to their 2013 version should you desire for more features. Solid backup tools, works great, and always free.
2) EaseUs Partition Manager is a very nice PartitionMagic-like program that is free and works well. Has no trouble working with Linux and odd partitions for Android Tablet MicroSD card CM7-10 booting, and it's a great tool.
with all the programs mentioned here... do they all handle raid-0 the same?

I have been using Acronis since the 2010 version. It works fine for me. Is there anything new and useful in the 2013 version comparing to the 2012 version?

500GB?
depends on how much is used, level of compression, etc.

Thanks OP! Was able to register and get the serial number. I don't really need the software right now so I'll download it later...
Laplink.. wow, I remember using them when I used serial and parallel port cables to transfer data. That was a long time ago...

This is cool. I purchased the FAR one from Fry's and since it is a 1 per pc product this is great without the wait! It seems fairly intuitive and make sure that you also download the boot iso located at the top of the download page.
O & O and Laplink have a software bundle they run a lot of times on their site, and if thats the case, this makes this nuclear hot, cause O & O Diskimage is the cat's rear end.
* Yes I love their products, yes I paid for them, they saved thousands, if not 100's of thousands of dollars in data recovery needs over the years.
I just clicked through the links, and looked at the pics. It definitely is the same product, just rebadged / renamed.
Do not miss this, this is great software, for $0 its untouchable in quality

didn't get squat yet--regarding the software, after registering and creating an account I went to download the Iso file and it wouldn't dl, just ran the waiting loop for 5 min. Had to let it go for now,will get back to it later. Glad others got it.

Actually, one must have a WD product installed in the computer to install Acronis True Image WD Edition. It won't install with USB or eSATA connected WD drives.
