"Easy Installation - easy functionality (requires 6th grade reading abilities)"
Pros: Worked as Stated
Cons: Well, since it worked as stated I have no problems with it
Summary: I'm not sure why everyone is giving this product such low ratings; I had a 80GB internal HDD which was taking RAW READ ERRORS according to the vendor utilities. I installed Ghost 10, backup up the HDD to a external USB HDD and validating the image with the included utility, restored to a internal 200GB drive; all HDDs both external and internal were by same vendor. No problems here!

Ghost stumbles for me when you try to use CD/DVD's for the images, which I wanted to do. A buggy mess on multiple versions. The software loads your registry w/ excessive junk, adds TSR programs that start @ every boot (imaging is rare, so there's not need for this other than "marketing," as far as I can tell). It falters over networks as well. I just restored a drive tonight from a DVD and it took much fiddling to make it finally work (Had to play games w/ the MBR on the drive). Just don't think it'll save you every time. History teaches differently. :o)
