Needing a great emulation program? Look no further than Daemon Tools Pro 8. It is the latest incarnation of the professional grade, popular emulation tool. You can use it to emulate both virtual drives and disc images.

You're probably wondering if this truly offers 'professional grade' emulation. The answer is yes. This is an incredibly handy and super easy application, especially if you're already used to using emulators. If it's your first time using an emulator, you might find it a bit overwhelming. But learning the ropes is easy, and it even comes with a media panel that gives you information about games and apps, including user reviews.

It's truly a no-fuss emulator. This new version of Daemon Tools has tons of professional features, even more than before. This includes allowing you to take images from physical discs. This is done through the advanced parameter settings. You can even store private, personal, and sensitive information in 'containers' called TrueCrypt using Daemon Tools.

You can emulate over 30 different SCSI, HD, and DT drives together, as well as 4 different IDE devices. It also has this awesome feature, 'Virtual Burner', which allows you to emulate a physical disc backup process. This is perfect for anyone wanting to create or edit audio CDs and data storage disks.

With Daemon Tools Pro 8, you can even use it in Windows Explorer.

You have a few options in terms of customizing both the image editing interface and the main window interface.
