This is powerfull software that allows you to take a "Snapshot" of your entire hard drive and back it up to another drive. If you experience drive failure or other major disaster, you can simply load the back-up drive and boot your computer as normal from the cloned copy. This is also usefull for copying small factory drives directly onto larger newer drives and adding storage space to your drive partition by making a larger drive partition. |
