Disk Imaging copies the data on the drive and stores it as a le. This le
can be compressed to a smaller size to take up less space. The Image
is not bootable.
9. Can I make a clone of my drive and put it in a different
machine?
A clone is for disaster recovery purposes (i.e. when your drive fails and
you need to get back up and running). No, you should not make a clone
of your drive and put it in another or multiple machines. There are
licensing issues for the software on your machine.
10. Is it possible to restore a single le from an image stored on my
EZ Bus DTC?
Yes. EZ Gig II allows you to mount an image as a “virtual” hard drive.
You can access this “virtual” drive as if it were a physical hard drive. You
would use your Windows Explorer or My Computer and copy the le
or folder and paste it on to your hard drive.
11. Why am I unable to save a le larger than 4GB on to my EZ Bus
DTC?
Fat 32 has a le size limitation of 4GB. If you are using Windows 98
SE or ME, FAT32 is the only option you have available. If you are using
Windows 2000 or XP, you can reformat the drive to NTFS. By reformatting
the drive to NTFS, you eliminate the 4GB limitation, but you will also lose
any data stored on the drive. Either reformat to NTFS before using it for
the rst time, or backup the data before reformatting.
12. I am unable to format my 80GB or larger EZ Bus DTC with FAT
32 in Windows 2000 or XP?
Windows 2000 and XP limit a FAT32 partition to 32GB. If you choose to
format the drive in a larger partition, you will need to use the NTFS le
system.
13. Can I boot Windows to my USB Device?
No. Because of limitations (both hardware and software) Windows is
currently prevented from booting and running off a USB drive.
