14.2 Security
Please note the following: If the power goes out or you accidentally press
RESET
during
the transfer, the procedure will be incomplete and you will have to partition and format or
clone the hard disk again.
No data will be lost because the original disk is only being read (no partitions are changed
or resized) until data transfer is completed.
We recommend that you do not delete data from the old disk until you are sure it is
correctly transferred to the new disk, the server boots up from it and all applications
work.
14.3 Executing transfers
14.3.1 Selecting Clone mode
You will see the
Clone mode
window just after the welcome window.
We recommend using automatic mode in most cases. The manual mode can be useful if
you need to change the disk partition layout.
If the program finds two disks, one partitioned and another unpartitioned, it will
automatically recognize the source disk as the partitioned disk and the destination disk as
the unpartitioned disk, so the next two steps will be bypassed.
14.3.2 Selecting source disk
If the program finds several partitioned disks, it will ask you which is the source (i.e. the
older data disk).
