drive. This can also happen if 100% Clone is used to clone from a small drive to a larger Target
drive.
Q.
I receive the error: "Drive error– either the speed setting is too high, or a bad sector was
encountered". What is causing this?
A.
This error is typically the result of using slower (older) drives, or using drives that have weak
or bad sectors. Defragmenting the master drive or adjusting the Speed setting to a slower mode
can sometimes resolve this error.
Q.
Why do I receive a ''Not Enough Memory'' error when running Scandisk or Defragment on
cloned Windows 9.x systems?
A.
This issue only applies to FAT32 partitions. The error occurs because both Scandisk and
Defragment cannot handle the increased number of clusters that exist when Targets larger than 8
GB have been cloned from Master drives smaller than 8 GB.
To prevent the problem from occurring, change the Logicube SuperSonix default CleverCopy
mode to Selective Partitions™. Then select the Defragment copy method for the partition(s) you
wish to clone. This will resize the clusters and reduce their number.
Q.
Why does my cloned Windows 2000 or Windows XP partition boot to a blue screen?
A.
The CHS mode for cloning needs to be set to LBA-1 or LARGE-1. If one of these was used,
then set the CHS mode to LBA-2 or LARGE-2. You may also need to set the Speed option to a
lower setting.
Q.
Why do I get the error “Can’t fit data to Target” when cloning between drives of the same
size?
A.
The drives may be from different manufacturers and the Target actually somewhat smaller
than the Master. Also, the Master drive may have some data at the very end of the partition. This
would prevent it from scaling down.
We recommend that you use a defragment utility on the Master drive before cloning it to the
Target again.
Q.
My cloning session stops with the error “Error initializing/writing NTFS data.” Why?
A.
This error means that NTFS CleverCopy has encountered corrupt data in the boot sector,
MFT or Volume Bitmap of the Master drive. The drive may still boot in a PC, however.
Q.
My cloning session always stops at a certain point with a “Drive not ready” error message.
Why?
A.
The Master drive may have too many bad sectors for the unit to skip over. In rare cases,
sectors can also be too damaged for the unit to skip over. Please refer to the Scan Target and
Repair Target section of Chapter 4: OmniDiagnostics.
Note that if Verify is set to Some or All, the bad sector(s) may be on the Target drive.
Q.
Why does the cloning session stop with an “Invalid MBR” error message?
A.
This error comes up when the partition table or boot sector contains corrupt data. Despite the
error, the Master drive may still boot in a PC.
