    I'm looking for a better back up program.


    Macrium has never worked for me, so please don't recommend it.
    I bought AEOMI and it isn't cutting it.
    ***
    Here's what I do:
    I have four HDD's for external "grab and run" backup's: two for Odd months, two for even months: I disconnect the "off" month.
    Plus three internals: one for operating system and programs, one for data, one for a daily data image.
    ***
    The internals work okay, but the externals are not. Obviously AEOMI is not up to the task, Macrium has failed me whenever I tried it and tried a test back up. It hates me for some reason.
    ***
    So I need something reasonably priced that allows my external back up system to allow every other month backing up.
    BTW, this is not an emergency, but it is important.

    Thanks in advance!

    How exactly?

    Note that MR does a check for data integrity on source and destination when creating an image. Some other programs may not. If you have such a problem, that may be what you are experiencing. Or not.

    Other imaging programs (e.g.)
    Veeam
    O&O Disk Image

    My understanding of that is it's not a completely new feature, merely an app providing convenient aggregration of features that exist.

    On a practical level you might find some text e.g. in help or error messages being expressed in a non-native manner. This might be unclear in some cases. That's potentially true of anything produced by any foreign company of course. In practice the English standard is very good for e.g. the GUI and the majority of the text, and has improved over the years.
