what is best practice for image backup/restore of 1TB drive?
Hi,
I believe the following statements are true for win7 image backup.
1) The win7 image is for the entire HDD (or SSD).
That is, you cannot make an image of just one partition.
2) When you restore the image, there is no option to restore
a single partition. That is, you have to restore the entire image.
3) The new disk must be larger than the image disk.
This is very restrictive. And it discourages large C:\ drives :-(
Are there any image backup/restore tools that will backup/restore
just one partition?
If I could do an image backup/restore for a selected partition
then I could have a C:\ partition of maybe 200GB for OS and a
D:\ partition of maybe 800GB for data on a 1TB disk.
What is best practice?
thanks
