-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Backup = Acronis True Image 11

Roger,
    While I have absolutely no problem with continuing to move forward, I 
have a related question that may lead to an alternative suggestion for you 
to consider.

    In looking at your external drive's housing, do you see a way to 
physically get to the drive inside?  I bought both of mine without drives, 
so they were designed with one end held in place with screws.

Peace,
G
