I do not own Acronis TI, but am ready to purchase
if it will backup from a Highpoint Tech, RocketRAID 454
ATA RAID Host adapter. Even though my RAID is protecting
my data from harddrive failure, I would like to do a full backup
of my XP Pro system (drives c: through j:) to an outside 250gb
drive.
I have three 120gb drives in my array, giving me 250gb under
the RAID software.

Thank you for any help.

Hello tomrouse,

Thank you for your interest in Acronis Disk Backup Software (http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/trueimage/).

We are sorry for the delayed response.

Please notice that Acronis True Image 10.0 Home fully supports RAID configurations (including RAID 0,1,5, etc.) from Windows (it uses Windows drivers to access RAIDs), and also while booted from Acronis Bootable Rescue Media. The stanalone version of Acronis True Image uses embedded Linux drivers for RAID arrays.
We recommend you to download and install the free trial version of Acronis True Image 10.0 Home (http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/download/trueimage/) to see how the software works on your computer. With the trial version of the product, you will be able to fully use the product for a period of 15 days. The only limitation of the trial version is that only restore function of the bootable media is available.

Thank you.
