Anybody know of a list of FUNCTIONAL differences between Ghost 10 and True
Image 9?

For example, can a drive that contains a backup image be defragged without
breaking the backup image?

I can't speak for TrueImage 9, but in Ghost 10, you can certainly
defrag the disk volume/partition that contains the image. The image is
just a file, nothing more special than that. On a drive that I use to
keep my Ghost 10 backup images, I have other folders with other data in
them and a separate Ghost folder with images.

You can always run the verify function on the image if you want
additional insurance.

Thanx.

I realize that the image is just a file, but I saw some comments raising
this issue with Acronis 9, so overcoming my natural shyness, I asked here.

I have a question about verify that I have included in another thread.
