Step 3. Select destination disk and click OK. Step 2. Select the disk you want to clone and click OK. Step 1. Click " Tools" menu and choose " Clone Disk" option. Copy all sectors and Copy all valid sectors according to the layout of the file system require that the size of destination disk shouldn't be smaller than original disk Copy all files allows to clone larger HDD to a smaller disk, but the capacity of destination disk shouldn't be smaller than the used space of source disk. If the disk to be cloned contains partition whose file system is not supported by the application, it will be cloned via "Copy all sectors" in order to make sure the cloned disk is the same as the original disk.Ģ. There won't be file fragments and it is very fast.ġ. When copying data, files will be rearranged according to file system layout. Cloning process gets rid of invalid sector, so it is quite fast.Ĭopy all files: Copy all the data of source disk to destination disk by analyzing file system layout of the source disk. Data structure on destination partition will be exactly the same as source partition. However, it is the most complete copy method which can copy all the data of the source disk to the target disk.Ĭopy all valid sectors according to the layout of the file system: Copy all valid data of the source disk to corresponding partitions on the destination disk in line with the layout of the file system. This clone mode may copy a large amount of invalid data and takes longer time. There are three disk cloning modes available:Ĭopy all sectors: Copy all sectors of the disk to destination disk without considering whether sectors are in use or not. Partitions created on destination disk are identical to those on original disk. During disk copying process, DiskGenius creates partitions on destination disk first and then clones data for each partition. Disk cloning refers to copying all partitions and data from one disk to another.
