EASEUS Todo Backup 3.5

You are well advised to backup your important data from time to time, and especially before performing a dangerous task like resizing a partition. Data you’ve backed up cannot be lost – unless you somehow manage to lose the backup itself. For Windows users there is a handy backup utility they can use free of charge to protect their data from unforeseen data loss disasters: Easeus Todo Backup.

Without asking for a dime in return, Easeus Todo Backup can backup and restore your photos, music, videos, a specific partition, or the entire hard disk (operating system, applications and settings included). If for some reason your system crashed, you can easily restore all the data stored on it, as long as you backed it up with Easeus Todo Backup first.

Keep in mind that even the most basic system (something in the $500 range) comes with a huge hard drive (320GB and more). With that much amount of space at your disposal, you will certainly amass a huge collection of images, videos, music and so on. If the unforeseen were to occur, you could lose all those file – forever. It is thus very important to have a backup on hand. Easeus is a company that’s known for coming up with properly good security software applications, and Todo Backup does not disappoint.

Downloading and installing the software is a piece of cake. Once installed on your system, the first time you run Easeus Todo Backup, you will notice that it lets you select 3 basic, but useful, tasks:
Backup – backup specific partitions or the hard disk as a whole
Restore – Restore previously backed up partitions; or restore the whole hard drive
Clone disk – if you want to replace your old hard disk with a newer, bigger HDD, clone it and make the switch without having to reinstall the operating system.

For each option the software provides a comprehensive wizard that walks you though the backup, restore or clone disk process. It couldn’t be simpler!

Pros
Comes free of charge
Easily backup your important data
Clone disks, move from one computer to another without having to reinstall the Widnows operating system

Cons
None that I could think of
