   Bob,   
      
   I've just thought an Image had to go to a HDD dedicated to only that   
   Image file and nothing else could be stored on that HDD.

   After getting my copy of Acronis True Image 10 Home, version 10.0 in   
   May of 2007, I have seen Comments about some of their later versions   
   not being Up To Snuff, so to speak.   
      
   I don't know, because I've never bought a later version of TIH to try   
   to find out.   
   Someone else here may have comments to set things straight.   
   What I have works for me.   
   My computer says something about SATA on the motherboard IIRC, but on   
   Boot Up I see something about IDE on the screen.   
      
   On the side of the TIH 10.0 box it says:   
   "Supported hardware- P-ATA (IDE), S-ATA, SCSI, IEEE1394 (Firewire) and   
   USB 1.0/2.0 drives, PC card storage devices."
