Preferred system Backup: Windows 7 or Gigabyte Smart Backup

[Craigster]

Now that I've got my system initially working well, I'd like to back everything up.
I am new to both Windows 7 and to the Gigabyte team.

Can any of you recommend a preference for either Windows 7 native backup scheme, or Gigabyte's utility, "Smart Backup"?

Any particular advantages or disadvantages of each?

Many thanks, Craig

I have never relied on either, but I do hear windows 7 complete system backup works well.

I personally use Acronis or Drive Snapshot and make manual backups on a set schedule, and can then restore anytime within a few minutes.
