    In search of free backup software


    Hi there

    I'll just echo all the sensible advice given here -- Macrium Free is the simplest, most flexible and reliable program for what you need to do.


    Just get an external drive (even sizes as large as 4TB are quite cheap these days and USB3 is fast enough).

    Now IMAGE the relevant HDD('s) to the external USB.

    MACRIUM will support imaging RAID but you might need to load the RAID driver when you build the bootable restore media.

    Warning though -- MACRIUM needs the driver as an .inf file -- a lot of the drivers you get now are .exe files -- you can extract the .inf file though using 7-zip or similar.

    Here's a link to Macrium and RAID -- although for V5 of Macrium it's still valid (V6/V7).

    Macrium Reflect v5 and RAID systems (RAID)


    Cheers
