Does Alcohol support Tages/Starforce3?

I confess I'm new to this Alcohol/Daemon tools lark. Until now I've only used cracks to allow me to put my originals away. However, last week I bought Deus X-game of the Year edition, which although only costing me 2 quid, was protected with Safedisk V2.80.011. I searched every F/S and FTP site to no avail for a nocd, as could not start the game whatever I tried. However as a last ditch attempt, I used Alcohol 120 for the first time (Took me a while to figure out how it worked), and to my amazement I got the game to run. I'm a happy bunny but have a couple of questions I would like answered if possible.

1.I presume the Alcohol software runs in the background emulating the protection on the CD, so can this affect the performance of a game, or is it negligable?

2. I tend not to buy games I can't backup using some method, so recent titles like Trackmania and Beyond Good and Evil are titles I wanted but haven't bought. This TAGES/STARFORCE 3 protection seems to have the crackers foxed, but will Alcohol allow me to run them from a backup? Or does it depend on the version? Thanks
