And here it is. Not only does it look like the Windows version, but it's just as easy and intuitive to use — compared to other
products that use different interfaces running under and outside of Windows which can be confusing and intimidating for novice
computer users.
Acronis has broadened the scope of supported rescue media in Acronis True Image 9.0 to include removable flash devices like USB thumb drives,
ISO images and RIS (Remote Installation Services) servers. The RIS option is more relevant to an I.T. Department than home users. But the
ability to use USB thumb drives as bootable Acronis True Image devices is a long overdue and welcome improvement (sure beats having to
shuffle around nine or ten 3.5" disks).
With Acronis True Image's ISO imaging (you'll need third-party CD and DVD burning software like Nero and Easy CD to take advantage of it), you
can create bootable DVDs that also support other Acronis products like Acronis Disk Director, or an Acronis backup image file of a baseline
Windows install, which should fit nicely on an 8GB dual-layer DVD-ROM disc.
One nice thing about Acronis True Image that sets it apart from competing products is that when you load it from the bootable Rescue CD,
Acronis True Image loads completely into RAM. So if you only have a single optical drive installed, you can remove the Rescue CD to insert the
discs containing your backups without having to worry about swapping the Rescue CD in and out during the restore process. With DHCP (Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol) installed on your home network, Acronis True Image will automatically detect the IP address of any network storage
devices you may have to store your Acronis True Image backups. If not, you can quickly and easily configure things manually.
Just remember that disk letters in the stand-alone Rescue CD can differ from the Acronis True Image handles drive letters under Windows. For
example, Drive E: in the Acronis True Image Rescue CD may actually be Drive F: under Windows! Note that this is not an issue with Acronis True
Image, but a limitation in the way Windows handles drive letters.

Restore
Restoring partitions and individual files and folders is just as easy and straightforward with Acronis True Image. Many of the restore options mirror
the ones you use for backing up, except you'll be using them to restore rather than to back up folders, files, or partitions. You can re-direct files
and folders to another drive; choose how or if to overwrite existing files, and so on. When restoring partitions, you can change the partition size
and location and even the partition type and file system. Although these last two options are seldom required or needed, it's good to know they're
available in case they are.
Another "we did it first" for Acronis is the ability to restore Track 0 and the MBR (Master Boot Record) separately from the partition in a disk
image file. This can save a lot of time if Track 0 and the MBR on your drive become damaged from a virus or some other non-mechanical problem.
As a result, this is what you'll see when you click next. You'll be asked if you want to restore the image to another drive if it's
available (in this case it isn't). Restoring an image to a drive with data on it overwrites it completely.
