I have a 128 gb SSD with my OS and programs taking up only 35 gb of space. I've tried to make a System Image Backup to one of my other hd's with 100 gb of free space but Windows gives an error msg saying there is not enough free space on the destination hd. Does the destination hd free space need to be as large as the entire hd that I'm backing up? So I'd need at least 128 gb of free space on the destination hd? Could this the problem? Thanks.

Downloaded, installed, backed up and verified the image in just a few minutes. Didn't even need to watch the video, it has an option to "Create an image(s) of the partitions required to backup and restore Windows". About as simple as it gets. And it didn't try to install any bloatware. Great program. With this and Acronis I feel a little more secure now with an extra backup program.

Thanks very much!
