$19 is a great price for Acronis True-Image. I can not argue with that, it seems worth it for peace of mind. I did once do a recovery with Windows backup. It did not mark the boot volume as active after the restore. It took some searching on Google to figure that one out. In the end, it worked out OK.

I started using imaging software when Drive Image came out back in around 1999 Me too and I loved it. Was simple and effective. And I agree after Norton bought it it just wasn't the same any more. Acronis was good at start but later got buggy and problematic. I avoided acronis last few years/versions. I was going to buy a copy when I saw you like it, but I changed my mind after I see more than 50% of reviews are still disappointed with the product. Too many for my taste. amazon.com Even that it works good on your system I will not take a chance. I will go with free Macrium and Paragon. Will use both and every disk image I will create with both of them, that way if one fail I will have another :)
