I have either not received the email or I have deleted the email with the serial number in it. Is there anyway I can get the serial number as I have emailed them but I haven't got a response yet?0 -
What computer have you got. If you computer will support it why dont you get two sata drives and mirror them.
The back up on a dvd is fine as long as you remember to do it. By using sata then you wont have to worry about it as the two hard drives are always going to mirror each other. if one blows then the otherone will always have the info on it.Filiss0 -

I am trying to do this on Dads computers first then my own computers. Dad has a Compaq desktop with 98SE. I want what he has on his internal hard drive to be copied to his external hard drive. I thought I needed this program.

First of all see if your motherboard will support sata. Both hard drives go in the pc and plug in to the mother board. I want to do it to my dell pc because the board has 2 sata connections
Problem with usb drives is they are very slowFiliss0 -
