Windows best cloning/backup software

>Acronis is top tier quality
It's fine but I wouldn't say top tier.
I'd use Norton Ghost over that any day

I'm going to school and the instructor has a hard-on for ghost. I absolutely hate it. I was trying to restore a GPT (UEFI) system and it fucked the partition GUIDs. Idk what version we're running, what's your experience with that?

It really shouldn't be fucking around with the GUID
I've honestly never seen this issue
I'd check to make sure you're cloning the unique volume information over during imaging

It was a whole disk -> image on a network share. It was a few months ago but there's not a lot that can wrong (in theory).

I've used Macrium Reflect and I think it's pretty solid, never had any problems with data corruption.

Don't need any of this bloatwhere when you have RAID1

thanks for proving my point
