Is the Sata disk a new one also or the old one? Have you tried the Restore using the bootable Rescue CD?
Are you using any wireless devices (keyboard, mouse) or multiple usb devices including hubs?
Have you tried making the bootable Rescue CD, booting with it and trying the Backup process from its menu?

Ah Roxio ... part of the problem might be that you have Roxio's Drag To Disc running in the System Tray.
Have you tried this using the bootable Rescue CD?
One trick that worked with previous versions was to leave the tray open when you inserted the blank media and let the burn process close the tray....
I should have said that I used the bootable CD of ver 9 build 3677 with the BartPE plugin, and the OS is WinXP Pro. I just have a Vista skin...
You don't know which disc ... that's why you start doing the dvd shuffle, so that Acronis can find what you told it to restore.
That's probably how most of us keep our backups - on an external drive like any other file except it has a .tib extension and no secure zone....
rkruz, if you have the space for full Images, avoid incrementals. It may seem a convenient feature but you're adding another link in a chain that...

Sounds like your drive needs some serious "houskeeping" programs to be run. Do you use any software to get rid of temporary files or any Registry...
