Acronis Migrate Easy

[ToyotaNSaturn]

Excellent product! It cloned the boot drive in my laptop (120GB WD) to a new WD 320GB disk in about 75 minutes. The interface doesn't totally copy from Partition Magic, but could use a bit more GUI-usefulness in manual mode.

At any rate, it worked like a champ to clone the old disk to the new disk. First time I used Acronis products in earnest was just now. Two-thumbs up!

Thanks for the info. I didn't scour the website but didn't look like too much for Linux (I saw Linux server).

I used a gparted live cd to copy my drive to a larger one. Worked well also, hardest part was manually copying the MBR and boot partitions.

If you have Vista Business, Ultimate or Enterprise editions, I highly recommend "Complete PC Backup and Restore". It's saved me arse twice now.
