Aomei Backupper 3.5 Serial Key
Everyone should have a recent backup of their computer, and everyone should regularly backup their computer. These two statements may seem identical, but so few people do #2, means #1 isn't possible. Most people leave it 'until later' or don't do it 'as its too difficult', which is (obviously) bad.
Some people back up their documents or photos, but not many people back up their operating system. Its actually very important, as (especially with the newer versions of Windows) updates applied automatically can sometimes make the machine unbootable. Modern hard drives, while having the technology to store oodles of documents and photos, are still mechanical (yes, apart from SSDs) and do break down. Only recently I went to turn on a machine and instead of a gentle whirrrrrr, it clicked and didn't start. Dead drive.
Software like Aomei Backupper take a backup of the whole drive as an image, so that it can be restored on a fresh, blank hard drive. The restored image is a perfect copy of your working system - all the programs installed, registered, documents in their right place, etc. Excellent. Having a backup of just your documents would mean you'd have to reinstall the operating system, office applications, register them, set up the settings again, etc.
So a quick review of the software. Aomei Backupper has a very simple tabbed interface, with most options having 'Next' and 'Back' buttons like a wizard. There is a lot of power within the options.
There are three types of backup - full, differential and incremental. A full backup backs up everything. A differential backs up everything since the last full backup, and an incremental backs up everything since the last incremental or differential backup. This means if you backup (for example) weekly, a differential backup will be a lot smaller and quicker than doing a full backup. A common approach is to do a full backup monthly and a differential weekly. Aomei Backupper helps greatly by having a schedular option - set it and forget it.
A physical disk can contain multiple partitions, which Windows sees as separate drive letters. A common approach is to have Windows on a C partition and all documents and large files on a separate D partition. This means you can image the C partition (and the necessary hidden system partition) of your system without backing up your iTunes music, large movies, etc. These can be backed up separately. Aomei Backupper supports backing up physical drives (so everything), individual partitions and even individual files and folders. This means Aomei Backupper is your complete backup solution. You don't need to use one program to image your drive and another program to backup files and documents.
Restoring an image is easy too. You can either restore from within Windows (if you're restoring a non-system partition) or you can boot from bootable media to restore from a 'bare metal' backup. This is obviously useful if Windows cannot boot. Aomei Backupper supports storing image files on additional USB sticks and network storage areas. Some software, once booted from USB, cannot see other USB media, or provide network card drivers / provide DHCP support so your machine can actually see the rest of your network. Aomei Backupper does both.
I feel like I'm in one of those infomercials now.. 'but thats not all...'
Aomei Backupper has several more handy utilities. Aomei Backupper supports restoring to different hardware. This means you can back up your old laptop (the one with all your programs installed on it), buy a shiny new one, and then restore your old laptop onto the new laptop. usually this doesn't work as the new laptop has completely different hardware and drivers. Aomei backupper takes care of this, allowing Windows to boot so you can then install the correct drivers. Maybe of not much use to general users, but this can be used in the corporate world for creating virtual machines of physical machines and vice versa.
Aomei Backupper supports cloning of disks. So if a laptop has an old spinny spinny hard drive, you can plug in a new SSD (even via a USB adapter) and 'copy paste' between the two, without creating an image first, then restoring it on the new drive - so cutting the time to do this in half.
You can explore backed up images within Explorer. So if you backed up a machine, you don't have to restore it to simply pull off a file that was on the desktop, or recover a directory - simply open the image which opens it in Explorer like a drive. Copy and paste like any other drive. You can't paste into the image but you can copy from it, so images aren't easily updatable 'manually', but thats not how image files should be anyway.
Maybe not another tool for general home owners, but certainly an impressive inclusion is the PXE Boot Server. This works for all ISO files, not just the Aomei Backupper boot disk, which is actually worth money in itself! An .ISO file is an image of a CD or DVD, which can also be bootable. You can 'load' this in Aomei Backupper, so that if you boot another PC (connected to the same network) it will boot from this loaded .ISO file. Many utilities (memory checkers, BIOS updates, hard drive checkers, etc) come on .ISO format, which a lot of people burn to CD or even create bootable USB flash drives. If you haven't got a spare USB flash drive you can simply use the PXE Boot Server to 'host' your ISO file. Some older laptops don't support booting from USB media - they didn't have the option - but most allow booting from the network.
Lastly, reliability. I've personally used many image creation software in the past - Ghost, Macrium Reflect, GParted, even CloneZilla, but Aomei Backupper is the one that hasn't let me down. Nothing worse than going to your restored image, thinking, 'thank goodness I had a backup!' to get 'Error 42.' or 'Bad image - cannot restore'. The only 'gotcha' that isn't mentioned is that before backing up your drive, its best to do a defrag first - while Aomei Backupper won't moan when it *creates* the image, it will when it tries to *restore* it. If its too defragmented, then it cannot restore it. Thats a great failing. Its an easy fix, but you have to know about it first. Well, at least now after reading this you know..
The suprising thing about Aomei Backupper is that all the above is in the free version. The only inclusion of the Pro version is command line scripting. (http://www.backup-utility.com/edition-comparison.html) The Pro does have file backup management (deletes old backups) but I personally find it safer to handle this myself. Nothing worse than wanting to go back to a backup you made 6 months ago to find Aomei Backupper deleted it.. Aaaaaargh! ;)
The other extra is merging backups, so a chain of differentials can be merged with the full backup to create a fresh 'master', saving space. However, again, I get a bit nervous when software fiddles with a known working image and merges stuff into it .. what happens if it crashes half way? Do I do backups of the backups just in case?! No, thats more stress than I need..
I haven't mentioned email notifications, encryption, compression, file splitting, intelligent sector backups (so if you backup your 200 GB hard drive which has 30 GB of data, Aomei will only backup the 30 GB of data . which would compress down to 20 GB - it won't create a 200 GB image) or VSS support (so you can backup Windows while Windows is running).
So in summary. More people should do backups, and more people should use Aomei Backupper. Don't panic if you don't get todays offering, as the free version gives you more toys than you probably need, but just ensure you install at least *something*. Doing a backup is far easier than you think - click on 'Backup', 'System Backup', confirm the location and click 'Start Backup' - all done within 30 seconds.
