I want to learn about the disk imaging tool safeback. But none of the sites I searched give more details about it. Is it still live? Then who owns it now? The latest version known from the internet sources is safeback 3.0 and is released in 2003 as per
I have made a quote on
I am looking for Safeback 2 for 10 years. I know that Safeback 2 better than Safeback 3.
But now I don't have Safeback 2. cry
Do you have any documents on how safeback 2 or 3 works?
Just out of curiosity why would you want software that is over a decade old?
What would that software offer that more recent software wouldn't?
I searched for its working to know the restoring method and surprised that it is no longer available.
Do you have any documents on how safeback 2 or 3 works?

"Safeback, offered by New Technologies Inc. (NTI), can make a qualified forensic duplicate of any hard drive that is accessible through a system’s drive controllers, including ATA and SCSI drives. Even devices accessed through a driver, such as a PCMCIA hard drive, can be imaged when the Direct Access option is not selected. Safeback is a small application that is designed to run a DOS boot floppy, so you will need to have a clean DOS environment ready on a boot floppy, as described in the previous section…"

The site is particularly well cached, though the technical info seems like "scarce"

Thank you )
Already referred the book. It tells how to use safeback, not the technical details.

It seems no update has been happened until aug 2011 and the page is not available after that. They provide only a little technical details (

Yep, the Internet Archive can archive contents, not "create them" when they are missing altogether wink
JFYI, Paraben's P2 Commander

can access/read images taken in the Safeback format, and I believe also FTK , mount image, Encase and possibly another number of forensic tools (at least for v2), so I believe that at least the file format used in Safeback v2 should not be too difficult to understand, if you have a few samples.
But there is also the Freeware P2 Explorer

You might also want to peruse these (though I doubt they will contain anything particularly useful)
