This backup software creates a precise image of hard drives or partitions without interrupting Windows. Compressed drive images can be stored on removable media to ensure safe data storage.

R-Drive Image is an exceptional tool to restore your entire system in the event of heavy data loss, caused by things such as a virus attack, hardware failure or even an operating system crash. The software can also be used for mass system deployment, since you can manually set up and image one system only, and then deploy it on other similar computers. This saves both time and costs in the process.
What's more is that if you only need to restore some specific files from a disk image, you can connect that image as a virtual disk and copy the necessary files directly from the disk image using Windows Explorer, or any other file utility. Plus, R-Drive Image offers full support for the GPT partitioning layout. It can create, resize and even change partition layouts of GPT disks during copy/restore operations.
R-Drive Image has recently launched a trial bootable version that you can run from startup disks such as USB flash, CD/DVD or floppy disks sets. This version is free to try for 30 days and is fully functional, similarly to the Windows version. The software's technical support team is available 24/7, all year round for any assistance, questions or concerns. You can contact them over email at any time or call during business hours (9 AM till 6 PM ET Monday to Friday) on 1-888-9-RTTCOM (1-888-978-8266) extension 2. In conclusion, R-Drive Image is one of the best backup and disaster recovery solutions to help prevent losing your data after a fatal system failure.
