Hey there everyone. First of all I hope I write this in the right category.. If not, I'm sorry!

I was wondering if anyone could help me find a program which can make virtual disks. With that I mean that I want to make a back up of a few disks, for I'm afraid they'll scratch or are damaged during our holiday (happened to me once..)
I know of Daemon Tools for Windows, but I need an equivalent for Macintosh

Thanks in advance!

The open source burn will copy disks

Burn - Home

If you dont want to copy discs onto other optical media then disk utility will create disk images from discs

There wasn't actually any need to download anything, Disk Utility (built-in) can do this as well.

I see... Never really payed any attention the Utilities folder, but I will now in the future! Thanks, this way I can delete the Burn thing again and save some bytes
