Restoring a disk (partition) from an image
Select partition size and location
You might need to resize and relocate a partition to redistribute the disk space between existing
partitions. In this case you will have to restore the partition to be reduced first.
These changes might be useful, if you are to clone a hard disk by creating its image and
restoring it to a new disk with larger partitions. Such cloning is used if it’s impossible to connect
the second hard disk to the PC.
Assigning a letter to a partition
Windows utilizes letters of Roman alphabet to identify disks and partitions
automatically assigning them letters at loading.
Under Windows NT/2000/XP OS Acronis True Image Server enables you to assign a
restored partition (logical disk) any unused letter. To do this select Yes, I want to
assign a logical drive letter to restored partition. If you don’t set this switch,
no letters will be assigned to the restored partition making it hidden from OS.
