Comment Re:Some things I've looked into... (DriveImageXML) (Score 1) 293
I'm on a small technical team of 30 people and we use DriveImage XML(http://www.runtime.org/dixml.htm) to do out laptop backups.
Each of us has our own external USB 2.5" HD around 120GB.
This backup tool is only supported on Windows.
A backup of my 60GB drive was around 20GB.
The external USB drive has a boot partition w/ the software that you can boot from, to restore the image.
Saving images can be done on the fly while the system is running, which is another added benefit.
also the image files are viewable since its all XML.
