Main Menu:
Select a HDD to enter main menu. There are five function items, “Divide Hidden
Partition”, “Release Hidden Partition”, “Backup”, “Recovery” and “Change
Password”. You can switch the highlight bar to make a selection on the opera-
tion which should be performed on the HDD and confirm your selection by
pressing <Enter>. The following operation will be performed on the disk you
selected.
1. What is a Hidden Partition?
SuperRecovery can be used to divide a hidden partition, which is to be
reserved for backing up HDD data. The partitioning will erase all the old data
saved in the HDD, to make sure that the following operations can be
continued. Once the division is done, any future variation to the HDD will
never affect the hidden partition, such as virus, causing turbulence, windows
system breaking down or data loss. SuperRecovery can recover all the data
backed up in hidden partition, letting you easily get your computer on track
again.
2. Divide Hidden Partition:
A. Enter a percentage of the HDD total capacity or an actual size in MB as the
size of the hidden partition, such as “30%” or “3000”. Press <Enter> to
confirm your input. As the average rate of compression is 50% or so, you
are suggested to divide 30% of the total as the capacity of the hidden
partition.
B. The system will then prompt you to Enter <Y> or <N> for confirmation.
Press <Y> to restart the computer, and the division for hidden partition
will go into effect after the system is restarted.
