I’m thinking of buying Acronis True Image backup program.
I have several older computers with no DVD burnig capacity.
Do I need a DVD burner and a software to use this backup software or can I backup onto a CD or to an external hard drive?
I have 4 computers. Do I have to buy 4 software, or could I just buy one and use it for all 4 of my computers?

Nope, u don’t need a DVD burner.
You can back up your system on an external hard drive. You can back it up on a CD if it fits. You can create a boot CD, using Acronis, so that you can boot from it, point to the external hard drive where your backup is stored and restore your system.
Yes, you can use the software for all 4. I have 3 and regularly back them up with Acronis.
Edit: Once you create a Boot CD, all you have to do is go to the computer u want to back up (or restore), plug an external USB hard drive, boot from the CD, and choose whether u want to create a backup or restore it from a backup.
So you can get the iso of your dvd and backup to your hard drive.
Try this new released program.http://www.imtoo.com/iso-maker.html
Not the answer but I used Acronis Migrate Easy 7, in which i had two internal hdds. It copied all what was on the old 160GB HDD to the 500GB HDD – in under 30 minutes.
No…………..
