HDClone, the universal cloning tool

» for data rescue, backup, migration, mass installations etc.
» creates logical and physical 1:1 copies (= sector copies)
» clones hard disks and many other storage media
» self-booting and new: running on Windows XP/Vista/Server

Functionality
HDClone creates alternatively physical or logical copies (clones) of hard disks and other mass storage media. HDClone is a perfect tool for backups and copies of entire software or operating system installations. A special 'SafeRescue' mode makes HDClone an invaluable tool for rescuing defective hard disks and other media. HDClone works independent of partitioning scheme, file system, and operating system. It also works with proprietary formats which otherwise would be unaccessible.

Faster with SmartCopy mode
HDClone creates logical sector copies (SmartCopy) on FAT and NTFS file systems in only a fraction of the time usually needed - yielding an equivalent result. SmartCopy can clone an entire Windows XP base installation in less than 20 seconds for example.

NEW: AutoExpand - upsizing on the fly
Let HDClone upsize your FAT and NTFS partitions automatically on the fly during copying.

NEW: HDClone on Windows (XP/Vista/Server)
• access to special media & controllers (SCSI, SAS, RAID, Dynamic Volumes ...)
• using familiar Windows drive letters
Each HDClone software package now contains a Windows program (HDClone/W) in addition to the self-booting program (HDClone/S). Since both are operated identically, you do not have to change over when switching between HDClone/s and HDClone/W.

Note:Please use the Free Edition to find out if a certain PC system and its mass storage media are supported. The Free Edition shows all supported and recognized drives, but some of them may only be usable with one of the higher editions.

The Free Edition of HDClone clones an entire hard disk to another, larger medium. Use it for migrating an existing installation to a new hard disk or for rescuing data. The Free Edition is real freeware without obligation to buy and is intended for the short-term usage at no cost.
