HDClone copies the complete contents of hard disks and other
IDE/ATA/SATA, SCSI, and USB media on a physical level. This allows to
create even backups or copies of complete operating system
installations smoothly. In combination with the special 'SafeRescue'
mode of HDClone, this technique is also perfect for rescuing data in
case of defective hard disks. Furthermore, HDClone works independent
of partition layout, file system and operating system (i.e. it works
with FAT, FAT32, NTFS, etc.). Thus, it also works with proprietary
data formats which could not be accessed otherwise. Besides copying
complete drives, it is also possible to apply it to certain partitions
only.
Professional Edition
The Professional Edition of HDClone is conceived for daily use. For
this purpose, it offers technicians, professional and private users
highest possible speed and flexibility through its 'FastCopy' mode and
the 'Sector area' option which allows you to define an arbitrary
copying area on the medium. HDClone Professional Edition supports
besides IDE/ATA and SATA/eSATA hard disks and USB Mass Storage devices
(hard disk, stick, card reader) via USB 1.1 and 2.0 also SCSI hard
disks* and Firewire (IEEE1394) mass storage (SBP2) devices, e.g. an
external hard disk or a card reader. The Professional Edition copies
up to 5,4 GB/min and more.
