To protect your data it is better to back up the entire machine, especially when you do not know what data you need to protect exactly. Using the full-system image backup technology, the backup software of Acronis includes Acronis True Image. The Acronis Data Protection Platform is where the backup activities are done.

Individuals, businesses, and service providers are their customers. If you need software for the purpose of backup, disaster recovery, secure file access, sync, and share, the powerful Acronis software is what you need. Opposite of the previous method, using Acronis true image takes just a few minutes to re-install your operating system with all your recent information. It lets you take an image when you install Windows and all programs, so you can replace it with the reinstalling Windows method. Acronis is known as the world’s fastest recovery. My workaround is to use Safepoint to copy/mirro the images stored on the NAS to a local USB disk formatted NTFS (using Safepoint is a good practice anyway), Then you can eject the USB disk from the NAS, plug it in your computer, and execute the recovery.One of the fastest methods of backup and restore the system is to use Acronis. On the Acronis True IMage home forum, you will find other users complaining about the same issue. I cannot say this is a systematic issue, but the fact is that, in my case, couldn’t get to recover. As of today, I tried with different backup images and computers, to no avail. You can browse to the backup, but you can’t recover. The recovery CD is the recommended solution for a full image recovery.

Several times, I tried to recover an image stored directly on the NAS with the Acronis recovery CD through Ethernet connection. It backs up and validates very well on this NAS you can open TIB files in Windows explorer and mount images as if they were local files, but it cannot recover images.
