Reviewed by: CNET Staff
For loading virtual disk drives, Daemon Tools is the best-known app around. The name comes from Disk And Execution MONitor, meaning that the program runs the minor task of drive emulation, so that virtual CD and DVD files can run.
The list of file types supported by the pro version of this program is impressive. B5T, B6T, BWT, CCD, CDI, CUE, ISO, MDS, NRG, PDI, and ISZ are all supported, as are up to 32 virtual drives. The benefits of running commonly-used discs from a hard drive instead of the disc itself are many, and go beyond reduced wear-and-tear on the disc. The app also converts discs into disc images, saving you the step of having to find a converter.
Daemon Tools also features events logs, device and image property displays, encryption, and panel locking, so that you can fix in stone the user interfaces' configuration. The UI is nothing to sneeze at, either, with a nav that naturally emulates the file explorer in Windows XP. For top-shelf disc image ripping and drive emulation, Daemon Tools is the premier choice for power users, but is easy enough to learn for beginners.

Version: Daemon Tools Pro Basic 4.30.0302
"best emulator of its kind - very comfortable"
Pros: really the best emulator out there. This product convinced me to purchase the full
advanced version. It's not cheap but worth every cent I invested. Support is by
far best I found in YEARS, if you like the trial you will LOVE the advanced editionCons: every function is usefull - there's nothing I dislike, except it is a bit more expensive
(but only few one or two dollars). Then again, it outperforms every other emulator
in functionality as well as stability.Summary: Things look rather bleak for virtualCD and any other emulator I tried. And rest assured:
I checked them all (and purchased most of them). This was the first time I extended
my license to full 5 years. I'm not a millionaire and money DOES m... read more >> - See all 2 user reviews Write review
