Creating a partition (disk) image
Chapter 4.
Creating a partition (disk) image
Disk (partition) image creation means backing up all data stored on your PC. Having
these images you can restore your PC after failures and protect yourself from hard
disk data losses.
Selecting partitions
In the
Select partitions for backup
window you will see the hard disk layout of your
PC. Flag a partition to select it. Flag a whole disk to select all its partitions. You can
select one or more hard disks or any combination of partitions and hard disks.
Disk and partition layout
Having selected partitions and/or disks, click Next. Note that this button is disabled
as far as no partitions or disks are selected.
Selecting image location
If you need to create a full image, you must specify its location on almost any
storage devices (in particular, those that can record):
•
Acronis Secure Zone (see "Acronis Secure Zone");
•
Hard disk;
•
Network disk;
•
Removable media drive, including tapes, CD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, Iomega Zip,
Iomega Jaz, magneto-optical drives and such.
