Seagate DiscWizard
Why Seagate DiscWizard ?
It is FREE and reliable, if you do it the correct way.
Download the program from Seagate web site.
Make a bootbale CD
Always boot into the CD to create, or verify, or restore images (I shudder when people create images, whilst Windows is running)
Buy an external Dock for $30 (It connects to your PC via USB or eSATA).
Buy a Seagate 3.5" drive, and shove it into the Dock
(Goes in vertically, and sits there in the fresh air)
Create the desired folders.
Boot into the CD, and create an image (DiscWizard is based on Acronis, and has been reduced to just a few options).
Verify the image.
Never stuff with your images (don't rename, don't copy, don't move)
