Complete PC Backup - Compression
Hello! I've installed Vista (RC1) in a dual-boot environment, alongside XP Pro. I need to be able to back up the PC but the image sizes are almost as big as the partitions being backedup. I am used to heavy compression when imaging (I have been using Paragon Hard Disk Manager to do this up until now) but am now having space issues! I've read here already that no compression is applied when writing the image to hard disk, and yet it is when writing to DVD. I believe this ought to be an option (I appreciate that it will take longer to complete with compression on, but that choice should be available to the user). Is there any way to enable compression for hard disk storage? Thanks in advance! |
