@FreeCompConsultant Formatting a drive doesn’t remove data, it simply creates a new index. You may not be able to access it using a fresh index, but it’s still there.
4:22 lol nice karate chop
HELP.
I am running RAID10 on a Promise EX8300 RAID Card
I want to swap between two different images:
= Windows XP 32bit;
= Windows 7 64bit;
And change between them regularly.
Any ideas which cloning software will let me do that?
FYI: I also know about and run virtuals – but I need to change my native OS.
I would be grateful to anyone who ACTUALLY knows
Cheers
Gotta love 60hz refresh…
That’s what happened to me too!!
Anyone who knows why?
Thanks for the tut!
hi there, if you could answer this question that would be great:
I have a 320GB WD internal hard drive and i want to clone it to a newly bought 1TB WD internal hard drive.
So i downloaded the free acronis software from Western Digital’s website and i followed the process it asked me to do to clone the drive. it said it required a reboot.
so i did, and when it gets to around 54% copied my computer just shuts down…what is going on here?
thanks
it copies everything on the drive… bit for bit… every little thing.
bro, is it possible to clone with different specification?. if it is, how? pleas help me. tnx!
yes. It makes an exact duplicate of the drives.
does this copy programs also
what does per se stand for?
what i know is that the sector-by-sector mode will create an image of the entire disk(sectors that contains data or not will be imaged) and the none sector-by-sector mode will only create an image of the sectors that contains data. in sextor-by-sector mode, it replace the entire disk image right? so what about the none sector-by-sector mode since it creates an image of the sectors that contains data only.
I would like to know the differences(advantages and disadvantages) between the sector-by-sector and none sector-by-sector mode, i want specific details but not what was being generally explain in the software user guide i already read.
When you restore, whatever is there is replaced with the disk image used. Not a format, per se, but would wipe everything out and restore to what it was like when image was taken.
what i was trying to ask is, i do have my entire pc backup already, i finally mess up my pc with viruses, now i want to restore the entire pc. so, would ghost and true image do a format to clean the disk(s) at first and then restore the entire pc?
yea, i know it would wipe out the data
No, a format would wipe out the data
i have been using norton ghost for a few entire pc backup but i still want to ask this. do true image and norton ghost performs a formation for the hard disk(s)? do they formats the hard disk(s) before backing them up?
it wont, you should be able to choose where you want to save the 80gb on ur 500gb harddrive
Can anyone Tell me For sure! the anser to this question,
i have a 80gb hard drive with windows vista ultimate on it, it is about to die and i dont want to loose everything. i also have a 500gb hard drive installed on my computer with all my games, music, movies and stuff. i want to use acronis true image to transfer my vista os onto my 500Gb harddrive, what i want to know is if i do this will it delete my stuff that is already on my 500 gb hard drive?
btw… 2009 has the vista look
No it cant, or you have to have to put the same partition hard drive in the new one
fairly certain, all the data would still be on that one cloned drive so if you had it as a second drive in your new computer (no RAID configurations) but because of the possibility of something like this you should always back up those codes somewhere or keep the cases or whatever they came in. But yes you should be able to get those things back.
are you sure about that? All my 10 thousand dollars worth of music production software would just be recognized by the new pc without having to re-enter license codes etc? if this is possible, could you please, ANYONE, leave a link to a site where i can read about this?
