Review by Comp Expert

Norton Ghost reeks of being a scam. Drive cloning simply did not work at all. I tried it several times, making sure to click copy mbr and set drive to active (it’s a laptop hard drive, cloned with a usb enclosure). Files do transfer fine and dandy as I can see them copied. Yet to no avail would it boot up – just froze itself. I repeated process several times in case there was some error on my part. Nope, no success. Spent hours upon hours going no where. Norton’s website is an awful mess, apparently designed by high school students, so no help there. Then I took a suggestion to try Acronis Trueimage, as it apparently was a product that could do the same job – just used demo version downloaded from their website – and it worked without a hitch the first time – my cloned drive actually booted just fine, as it was supposed to. Therefore there was nothing wrong with the hardware end. Ghost simply is a scam that does not work. An investigation should be engaged for the consumer scam that is going on with this product.
