About Norton Ghost

Norton Ghost

Advanced utility used to clone hard drives, creating backup images of a hard drive. Using this utility, network administrators can distribute software across a broad range of computers with all the same configurations.

Norton Ghost allows a hard drive image to be created on a second hard drive, CD-R (compact disc recordable), CD-RW (compact disc re-writable) or directly to another PC using USB (universal serial bus) or TCP/IP.

Norton Ghost also supports FAT16, FAT32, NTFS (NTFS file system), EXT2, and EXT3.

Overall, Norton Ghost is an excellent piece of software; however, is for more advanced users and works best with small configurations or small sets of installed software. For example, the operating system and all drivers. Large configurations that are several gigs can take a great length of time to create.
