There are a number of options you can modify:
• HDD raw copy to copy the hard disk in the sector-by-sector mode, thus ignoring its information structure (e.g.
unallocated space or unused sectors of existing partitions will be processed as well). This can help to avoid
problems with hidden data created by certain applications or the system administrator. However, it will take
more time to accomplish the operation.
• Partition raw copy to copy the on-disk partitions in the sector-by-sector mode to successfully process unknown
file systems. However it is not recommended to enable this option when working with supported file systems as
it takes more time to accomplish the operation.
• Perform incremental copy to only copy changes on the hard disk from the moment of the last copy operation.
The program will perform comparison between a previous copy of the hard disk and its current state. Only
sectors that are different will be updated, thus considerably decreasing the amount of data to write.
• Change masks for files to exclude from copy to manage contents of the resulted duplicate. By default the
program will take into account exclude filters set in the
Settings dialog. If you need to change them, please mark
the checkbox and specify additional filters on the next page of the wizard.
• Copy without free space blocks to arrange partitions one after another.
• Resize proportionally to proportionally change the size of partitions keeping their relative order intact.
To do that, press the Pause button, to continue execution press Start. To interrupt the operation, press the Cancel
button.
