Free Disk Imaging and Backup with Macrium Reflect

April 29th, 2009 by Connor McBrine-Ellis | No Comments | Filed in Apps, How Tos, Online, Tech

Ever want to back up your hard drive?  Macrium Reflect Free Edition, is AMAZING free disk imaging and recovery application.  The problem with traditional backup is that you have to search for your files to back them up!

No longer!

It will put every file in your hard drive into 1 compressed file.  No more need to search for obscure files, like those tax files that you can’t find etc, but now you can back up your computer in 1 swipe.  The main thing that stops backups these days is not being able to back up everything, and the fact that traditional backups take a LONG time!  Macrium Reflect is really fast – only taking about an hour to image every 100 GB!

Download Now!

Enjoy!

Introducing Sandboxie: a complete testbed solution

Sandboxie Control

Sandboxie is an all-in one solution to trying out stuff on your computer that you don’t trust at all.  It is a brilliant idea, because it basically acts as a middleman between your PC and any programs and applications that are running on it, and it runs them inside a restricted environment, while still allowing regular interaction with the operating system.

This is a definite alternative to the virtual machine I have been using for years, and I’ll probably switch over due to the speed of not having to emulate a whole computer.

A brilliant idea overall!
