Hi Wil,
I don't want to pull you in the wrong direction. Perhaps your market is with basic home users, and your focus should be there. Having worked on commercial software products before, I know that there is nothing worse than wasting a lot of time to satisfy one vocal customer who constantly whines about corner cases, instead of focusing on the broad market appeal of your product.
I urge you to take a few minutes to examine the Carbon Copy Cloner feature set and user interface. You have independently developed something very similar in both features and design. I understand "getting things done", but I also understand "NIH". Looking at CCC may help you avoid making poor decisions now that have implications for the future. Just sayin'.
I look forward to your email message.
