Clone Disk |
Cloning a disk creates and identical copy of the source disk. However, the destination disk does not need to be the same size as the original. Macrium Reflect takes care of any system configuration parameters which means that the cloned disk can be used to replace the original disk without any further configuration or alteration being required.
To run, select the link 'Clone this disk...' under the disk you wish to clone in the 'Create a Backup' tab.
The Clone dialog shows the source disk for the cloning operation. At this point it is possible to select or de-select partitions to be cloned.
