Those of you that own WD devices, you can now get the 2013 version of Acronis true image. It was just updated on 11/15.
The specific version according to the release notes is : Acronis True Image OEM 2013 (HD)
http://support.wdc.com/product/downloaddetail.asp?swid=119&wdc_lang=en

This is the first version of acronis that supports SSD alignment automatically AFAIK, (I do know that 2011 had issues).

And it case it wasn't obvious, you must have a WD device on the machine for this program to work.
 
All you need to do is prep the SSD with Diskpart for Partitioning and Alignment then use a 1.36 MB DOS app called GHOST.EXE.

No matter what the BackUp Utility is - It's handy to keep a SYS-Prep Image on hand as a Master.
