use an external drive and Acronis True Image software, make an image of your

operating system drive, and seperate data backups.

You don't give much in the way of detail do you?

 

If you are a home user and you wish to make a backup copy of your hard disk,

the Acronis Trueimage is entirely adequate to the task. It provides an eay

method of restoring that backup to a brand new empty hard disk should the

worst ever happen. There are other products that perform a similar

function, but I have had to use Trueimage to restore backups in anger on

several machines and have never had any problem.

 

If you are in a corporate environment, then Trueimage *may* be good for you

but without any further details, I would reserve judgement. Truimage, for

example, would not be suitable for a large corporate system running on

several servers.
