    1 out of 5 stars A total waste of money.   July 27, 2008
    Don (Oklahoma City, OK USA)
    I gave it one star because that's the minimum, but really, it doesn't deserve that.

    As just one example of the problems I had, I told it to format my new HDD using NTFS. After working for over 18 hours, with no progress indicator or evidence of a problem or that it was finished, I finally just shut the computer down ("Cancel" didn't work), only to discover that it had formatted the drive as a FAT. Not a FAT32 or the NTFS it was instructed to do, just a FAT.

    A FAT waste of money. Never again.



    3 out of 5 stars Copies XP OK Vista not.....   December 16, 2007

    My kaptop was configured with XP Pro and Vista Business Edition. When upgrading fom an 80gb to 160gb drive I used DiskCopy and Clean. Results. Only the XP partition works. I had to reset the boot paths in Vista only to find massive access issues related to missing or corrupt permissions. I May have to reinstall Vista or find another brand of software to finish myy migration. Point is software works with XP but not Vista.


    3 out of 5 stars Problems with drives over 137GB?   September 23, 2007

    I've had mixed results with this software. I first attempted to use it to migrate my desktop's hard drive to a 300 GB PATA Maxtor. Unfortunately, the software failed during the clone process despite several attempts -- perhaps a 137GB issue? I punted, using the CD included with the Maxtor drive, which incidentally worked great.

    I then tried cloning my ancient HP laptop's drive to a new 60GB 2.5" PATA drive. The Avanquest software seemed to back up all the partitions with no errors, but the cloned drive would not boot when reinstalled in the laptop. I don't know whether that was due to HP's hard drive configuration or a problem with the Avanquest software.

    I then used the Avanquest to upgrade my wife's desktop to the 80GB drive I'd upgraded my desktop from. The Avanquest software worked great in this application, and was worth the money I spent -- but one success out of three attempts isn't that impressive.
