"Regular hard drive backups are an essential component of data protection. All computer users, from those with basic technical knowledge to the most advanced users, should regularly backup their computer to prevent the loss of essential system files, important documents and valuable data like digital pictures, music and contact lists," said Matthew Moynahan, vice president of consumer products and solutions at Symantec Corp. "Norton Ghost 9.0 allows users to easily make a complete image of their hard drive so they can feel confident that all the valuable information on their computer has
been safely backed up and stored."
To make the process of backing up even easier, Norton Ghost 9.0 allows users to schedule automatic backups by the day or hour. Norton Ghost 9.0 also features point-in-time rollback, allowing users to choose a specific backup operation and to restore their computer to the exact state it was in at the time of that backup. It also makes finding data, files and folders easy with its ability to mount images as a drive letter so that the backup copy looks just like the original drive. Norton Ghost 9.0 is also backward compatible with PowerQuest Drive Image 7.0, allowing users to access and restore images created with the product.
Symantec Recovery Disk is also included in Norton Ghost 9.0. This helpful tool allows users to boot, restore a backup image, and perform system fixes and virus scans when their computer's operating system is not responding. For Windows 9x users, the previous version of Norton Ghost is also included. Norton Ghost 9.0 also offers increased driver and interface support for USB, USB2 and FireWire removable storage devices.
