Title: Disk imaging/cloning software
Post by: Rusty Shackleford on February 19, 2013, 04:56:22 AM

I just finished installing Windows 7 Professional 64-bit on an SSD in my laptop and I'd like to create a disk image for future reinstallations. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good disk cloning/imaging software? I was considering Norton Ghost but they want $70 for it now.

Thanks for the suggestions, guys. I went with DriveXML. Simple enough to use and it trims the image too, in case anyone else needs a (free) alternative to Ghost.
