Steven,
Based on your previous post, you only have 1 server and a couple of clients;
so I would attach the external to each machine that you were imaging, and
give each image an appropriate name corresponding to the computer being
imaged.
I think that network coping is supported but not sure, and with so few pc’s
to image, probably not worth the aggravation setting it up for that anyway.
This utility has a nifty feature that allows you to create an emergency boot
partition, and store the image in it. As long as the drive is intact, you
can have a computer back to that state in about 15mins or less.
