    Hi

    Does anyone know if system image backup files created in Windows 7 can be moved or copied to another location (say, from one external hard disk to another external storage drive), just like Acronis TrueImage image files?

    Thanks.

    Yes, they can be moved to anywhere you want. But be sure to copy the whole backup folder, not just the vhd drive image.
