Ghost/HD imaging software

[no_pulse]

What would you suggest is a good hd ghosting/imaging software? What I would like to do is ghost my current HD that has my OS and other software on it, to a bigger HD. I was wondering what some of you might use.

The last time I used a HD imaging software was in college and I used Norton Ghost.

Acronis True Image.

IF you have a seagate HDD...download their free imaging program, its a cut down version of Acronis. Same goes for WD.

Other than that buy Acronis True Image Home. Fairly cheap and is good kit. I use it all the time :)

Another vote for acronis true image, although I haven't been able to figure out how to put an image on a drive thats a different size then the original :( but it claims its possible....instructions might help lol

As long as the destination drive is larger than the size of the data in the image, you should have no problem doing that.

Anyone know of a mobile program (one I can install onto a usb stick) to do the same thing?
I fix a lot of friends computers, and to be honest it would be easier to have a mobile program then to install, use it, and uninstall so they dont mess anything up.

Yeah, clonezilla does the job if you know a bit what you are doing. The last time I used it (version 1.1.39 if I remember correctly; a couple of months ago), the documentation was rather on the poor side, but it looks like it got a bit better... I might have to retry it, just to see.
