    Hi all,

    I am wondering if anyone has any experience in using Lenovo's Enhanced Backup & Restore.

    My situation is that I am thinking of updating the firmware on my MyDigitalSSD 128GB mSATA SSD to the latest version. However, from what I read, the update will wipe the mSATA SSD. Also, at the moment, I have been backing up my C:\ to an external HDD weekly using Lenovo's Enhanced Backup & Restore software.

    My question is if my steps below are workable and if the Enhanced Backup & Restore program will restore my system back to the latest backup?

    1. Use Enhanced Backup & Restore program to backup the latest image of my system.
    2. Update firmware on my mSATA SSD. All data will be wiped.
    3. Use my Recovery Discs to restore the mSATA SSD to Lenovo's factory image.
    4. Use Enhanced Backup & Restore program to restore the latest image.

    Any comments, anyone? Thanks in advance!
