I can NOT count the times your software has saved me
I am no one special, just an ordinary computer user. I have used your program for many years now. I can´t imagine not having your software on my PC. I can´t count the times I have been required to insert a CD to make an update on my PC. Or have to re-install a program for it to work correctly. I travel and do not take all my CD´s with me, but I do carry my VCDs with me everywhere. I can NOT count the times your software has saved me. Having complete access to ALL of my software, ALL the time is “priceless”. Thanks for the fantastic software.

Senza dubbio uno dei migliori software che abbia mai usato
Superior results, especially for the mobile traveler with a laptop. I can take all my entertainment CDs with me on my VirtualDrive. I have been using this product for 3 years.

Best software I have ever purchased
I use VirtualDrive for my personal business. No more shuffling of CDs. I have loaded 27GB on one VirtualDrive.

We would recommend VirtualDrive Network to any school
We purchased the FarStone VirtualDrive Network last year for use in our elementary school (K-4) computer lab. It has met, if not surpassed, our expectations for the lab environment. Looking forward, we would like to incorporate its use across our LAN, so that the students can access the same applications from their classrooms. Application setup on our server was not difficult, nor was installation on client machines. We would recommend VirtualDrive Network to any school needing an easy, fast, and reliable means to share applications.

We have been very happy with the results and receive many visits from other schools
The major benefit of VirtualDrive has been not having to handle any more CDs. We took all of the software programs, such as Kid Pix Studio, that normally need to be in the CD-ROM drive and now run them off a single work server using VirtualDrive. I have been very impressed with the access speed and can even run the programs on computers that do not have CD-ROM drives.
We have no more lost or damaged CDs. I plan to expand the use of VirtualDrive by networking the classroom and library research computers to the work server. This will provide easy access to CD-ROM-based encyclopedias, dictionaries, and atlases. We have been very happy with the results and receive many visits from other schools that are interested in following the same program.

Why did we wait so long to get this software?
We purchased FarStone Technology´s VirtualDrive Network software to eliminate the necessity of having teachers map and load CDs in each of their students´ computers. The software installation was very simple and easy to accomplish. With just a little training, teachers have adapted quickly to the use of VirtualDrive and asked:

Vorrei aver scoperto questo CD virtuale molto tempo prima!
I´m very excited about this excellent product. My embroidery biz uses a lot of artwork and I have hundreds of CDs to manage. Searching for artwork on many CDs used to be so time consuming and is MUCH faster and easier now. Vorrei aver scoperto questo CD virtuale molto tempo prima!

VirtualDrive keeps those important CDs in my reach at all times.
I am a programmer and I use VirtualDrive for two main applications. One of them is quick conversion and mounting of Isis from the MSDN library, and the other is keeping an always ready image of my machine´s OS, and application CDs such as Office which seem to always be scattered when I need them because Office is calling for the original CD. VirtualDrive keeps those important CDs in my reach at all times. I have three licenses for it and it is on all of my machines - two laptops and a desktop. My wife has even found the joys of VirtualDrive--she uses it to cache her game CDs and run them as fast as possible.

I love it when things work as they should
I did download the VirtualDrive 12 you suggested and it works fantastic! Thanks also to FarStone for giving me the $19.99 upgrade option and the instant electronic delivery.
I love it when things work as they should.
Best wishes to you and FarStone,

I have probably saved several hundred dollars
My main use for it is to protect the original CD's for my kids' learning programs. They used to scratch the discs to the point of uselessness very quickly, so instead, I keep the originals now and I put whatever program they want on their computer until they don't want it anymore. The kids can have many games installed on the same computer with no risk of destruction. I have probably saved several hundred dollars because I didn't have to buy replacements.

I know it' s not magic, but it seems to be. Job well done!
I've begun to use Virtual Drive 12, initially downloaded as a (probable) means of speeding up occasional game play, which it does in spades! (As though I had time for it! - I'm ancient and have a particular fondness for the slightly-less-ancient Lucas Arts Star Wars shoot 'em up games - - XWing/Tie, etc. - - as stress-relieving entertainment.)
In real life, Im a consulting engineer with need for a wide array of reference materials, and a serious appreciation for anything that genuinely helps to speed my work. As with many busy folks, I don't wait well, and have just constructed a new quad-core super-go-fast machine to help alleviate delay issues with drawings and large spreadsheets, especially with interrelated multitasking. Games are a fun outlet, but Virtual Drive is emerging as a professional necessity in the quest for speed.
Virtual Drive is remarkably simple and intuitive, and a terrific help in eliminating "in-drive" disc requirements, and in obliterating disc delays. Additionally, some older discs are getting a bit scruffy, and this alternative will prevent further handling/use damage. It copies expertly and with uncanny accuracy. Very versatile with alternative formats.
I know it's not magic, but it seems to be. Job well done!!
As I work with it, I am coming to understand its remarkable potential. I see now that it can provide a high-speed substitute for all of my professional reference CDs, such as for CAD symbols, forms, fonts, info libraries, etc. Though a lifelong and arguably well-justified skeptic, I'm getting excited - it will save many valuable hours. Interestingly, after only a few applications I'm now looking at every CD I use frequently as a candidate for conversion. Am archiving copies of the virtual CDs in satellite storage (HDDs are cheap - time isn't.)
My sole suggestion would be to include a simple animation during search operations indicating that there's something happening - there are long and disquieting "dry spells" while the computer is "thinking" during which one is tempted to kill the thing and start over. Perhaps a simple message that delays may continue for minutes (seems a lifetime if you're a skeptic) while the program and disc are shaking hands would suffice.
Thanks for a great product.

VirtualDrive is one of the most stable and solid pieces of software
We have never encountered any problems. It is a timesaver in the school environment; it eliminates the need for students to handle expensive software and allows students to have a wider selection of software
