CalicosineSo does <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Kopia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Kopia</a> do disk imaging, or no? I ask because I'm looking for a good alternative to <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MacriumReflect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MacriumReflect</a> , saw some stuff here and in a web search that they ended support of the free version and I want to get off Mr. Bone's wild ride (late-stage capitalism and <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/proprietary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#proprietary</a> software).<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/backups" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#backups</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#capitalism</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/LateStageCapitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LateStageCapitalism</a>

Ian NeillSpent some time over the weekend, well basically the whole weekend, revamping some of my backups. Whole disc image backups are something I want to do more frequently.Very pleased with the completely free version of <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/MacriumReflect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MacriumReflect</a> v8 for windows and <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/ReDoRescue" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ReDoRescue</a> v4 for Linux.Macrium also allows the backups to be automated!

LinkThis experience got me thinking that instead of leaving 1 of my NVME drives waste away having <a href="https://calckey.social/tags/Windows" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Windows</a> that does not get used, I might as well use it as a backup-only drive on <a href="https://calckey.social/tags/Linux" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a>. Wipe the drive, mount it to my main system, then set <a href="https://calckey.social/tags/Vorta" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Vorta</a> up to use it as a <a href="https://calckey.social/tags/backup" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#backup</a> repository. That way I'd have an always available <a href="https://calckey.social/tags/macOS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOS</a> <a href="https://calckey.social/tags/TimeMachine" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TimeMachine</a> like backup solution using that drive. I'm curious how would I go about cloning the entirety of a drive to another on Linux (preferably graphically) though? In comparison, I normally use a free tool called <a href="https://calckey.social/tags/MacriumReflect" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MacriumReflect</a> that does a good job of cloning drives on Windows - I could even perform the cloning while using my desktop as usual from the source drive with no slowdown/issue. Never found a 1:1 alternative yet for Linux that could achieve this.

morgandawnNeed <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/computer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#computer</a> advice right now. The <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/SSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SSD</a> drive which runs my Windows desktop died & I can no longer <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/boot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#boot</a> (no bios found & it fails SMART). 2nd <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/HDD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HDD</a> hard drive passes <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/SMART" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SMART</a>. Need to pay someone to install new SSD drive and Windows. OEM Windows license means $ for another license. I have a <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/MacriumReflect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MacriumReflect</a> image of all the partitions, but it is an image, not a clone. I don't think I can reinstall Windows that way. Would also like to recover any SSD data not backed up to the image which is 1 month oldAbove all, I want nothing to impact the 2nd HDD drive which is where the bulk of my data is stored. I have these files backed up through Thursday. Really really don't want to have to reinstall apps, browser extensions but seems inevitableQuestion: What do I need to tell the computer tech specifically to do, and to avoid doing?<a href="https://sfba.social/tags/SiliconValley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SiliconValley</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/SanJose" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SanJose</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/BayArea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BayArea</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ComputerHelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ComputerHelp</a>
