I'm using Ping - Backup system, which is Linux based. But it can be used to backup Windows partitions too.
It must be accessed from a bootable media.
So my problem is it shows the drives named as "sda1, sda2, sdb1, etc". And even though it also shows their names, I'm pretty sure I didn't see one for the C: drive.

Thanks guys,

JDLm

Yep, that's usually the case, but not always. On most systems, you could simply go by whichever is the biggest. That would not be the case, though, usually if you also have a "data" drive or partition.
