Any device drivers not found on the recovery CD are listed in a report, so you can determine if they're crucial or not.Īlso at installation, the program tries to automatically create a set of backup policies - what to back up and where - based on, among other things, what drives are available and what user profiles are present. This insures that if you back up to an external device (such as a USB-connected hard drive), you should still be able to access the backed-up data without needing Windows. are available on the program's bootable recovery CD. The most important is a scan to determine whether a number of different hardware drivers - mass-storage, network, etc. Right after installation, S&R does several things to insure that it'll be able to properly back up and restore the whole system. Save and Restore keeps all the good things from Ghost, but it's essentially an incremental upgrade and not an entirely new product. Symantec bought the program, rebranded it Norton Ghost, and added features from PowerQuest's Drive Image product (also bought by them). Ghost itself was originally a standalone program, booted from floppies, that was used to perform drive-to-drive and computer-to-computer imaging. Norton Save and Restore is actually the newest version of Norton Ghost call it "Ghost 11.0," if you want to.
Summary: As lightweight as a program like this can get, but it also doesn't have anything you might not really need. Price: $26.98 (bulk licensing also available 30-day trial available)
