Why not!?

If you're going to recommend a program, you should be prepared to answer all the questions about it.  Ya think?

Yes indeed, but I have not recommended it for anything, but have merely posted as information.

Downloading now. Never heard of this b4. Looking for a free back-up to Ghost 14 .. just in case.

Update - installed v. quickly. 26-MB download. No reboot req'd.

Hopefully no conflict with Ghost 14.

Will see how this works.

Update #2 .. backing up my C drive now to external USB drive. Interface seems inuitive. I had no problems, questions or heading scratching. All seems to have gone well .. so far, so good.

Uh, update #3 .. nothing seems to be happening. It says "analyzing file system on volume C". No progress bar movement. No CPU activity. No HDD light activity. "reflect.exe" is loaded in task manager, but no CPU usuage.

I let it sit 30 minutes. It never did anythng. Zero progress.

Rad, thanks for posting your experience, sucks it didn't work. i had planned on trying it from my UBCD4win using joshua's plugin http://ubcd4win.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=11230&hl=macrium but have yet to find time to do it. A free app that works well from a PE bootdisk would be great for using on customer's machines. Ghost works so well for me I really haven't tried many of the free imaging apps but would like to be able to recommend some to people who don't wish to buy ghost.
