Hot Imaging in Windows: Introducing the Breakthrough Drive Cloning Solution

Feb. 14, 2012 - PRLog -- Alliance, Ohio, February 14, 2012 - Novosoft, a world-wide security software developer and data management service provider, reported hot HD imaging functionality for Handy Backup, the popular backup utility. The new edition of the utility will have as a feature smart copying of hard disk drive partitions or the total hard disk drive with optimized process duration, minor requirements for PC user skills, and minimum number of steps to be made. The fresh hot image backup functionality is created for Windows, and general hard disk drive imaging is also available for Linux systems.

"There are technologies which deserve a firm rank of a toughie. HDD imaging has earned one too. There were days when making a snapshot of a hard drive required those not so obvious actions: logging off and in between various OS on the one computer, creating low-level file copying instead of file-based backup, shutting down all system processes, making a system disk to download from for imaging the original OS, and so on. With the the latest Handy Backup featuring hot disk imaging, those are nothing but nightmares of the past, gone to oblivion" noticed Alexander Prichalov, the head of Novosoft Development Department.

The announced fresh edition of the Handy Backup program offers hot image backup (http://www.handybackup.net/image-backup.shtml ) functionality. From now on the making of a system HD snapshot takes as little as selecting the "Disk image" option among "What to back up" alternatives in the software wizard, in a few clicks. No logging off Windows or shutting down the system processes are needed. The recovery clone of the HD is made on the fly.

The hot disk imaging process organized that way presents optimized process duration, minor requirements for PC user skills, and the smallest ever amount of clicks to be done.

Besides the total operating system image backup, the points are individual hard disk partitions and partition table.

The recent hot imaging is organized for creating snapshots of operating systems. Also, there is the usual functionality for imaging Ubuntu hard drives, with the Handy Backup Disaster recovery bootable disk creating. The utility editions to feature hot imaging are Home Professional, Small Server, and Network Server.
