Just got a one terabyte (made up of 2x 500GB) drive and would really like to do this.
Is there a program or method that can back my entire drive(s) to an image file.

I have tried these:
DriveClone Pro (full version)
Ghost 8.0 (full version) => bad idea
Ghost 14 (full version) => errors, bad idea too
Acronis true image (trial version)

I would to back up my hard drive(s) (preferrably in dos / kernel mode) with no questions asked.

Which is the better one or is there a better one out there.

Cheers

hi
got something similar - on my mac, with it running RAID 1, plug in, turn on Time Machine, forget about it, it's done. Pure magic

best thing every - you don't ever have to think about backup again it just happens and recovery is so slick you wouldn't believe it

On my pcs I use Freebyte backup onto a Dlink DNS323 again running raid 1 - works well but nothing like the mac

Cool thanks
Just got it now.
It seems that the only thing that's possible is backing up folders and cloning drive to drive not converting a drive to an image file.
