Norton 360 / Norton Ghost

[boxturt]

Greetings TCH Family,

 

First, let me wish all of you and yours the best of holidays and a happy, safe and prosperous new year!

 

I can not seem to find an answer to this on my own, perhaps some of you have experience with this.

 

I have been using Norton Ghost on my machines to do all my backups, set restore points, etc. I was using Norton Internet Security until I decided to upgrade to Norton 360. This has a backup feature built in.

 

360 works faster but is it doing the same job? (I wonder if my system files are getting backed up as well.) Perhaps this is redundant and I only need one of these.

 

I figured this was a pretty simple question until I tried to get a definitive answer from the source - ha ha, so any insight is appreciated.

 

Thanks!

 

Ty

Norton 360 does not have Norton Ghost like facilities for imaging hard-drives.

Hi Bruce, thanks for the quck reply. The term "imaging" had escaped me, thanks for refreshing my memory.

 

I probably should have asked this in the first post: Do I need to use both? I'm thinking I can just turn off the 360 backup as Ghost is set to backup everything (as far as I can tell)?

Sounds logical to me.

Thanks!
