I have had some problems with my sons imac G4 (OSX 10.4), which have (for the moment) been solved by Disk Warrior. However, we suspect the resident HD may not be stable, so want to connect an external HD. We Plan to clone the resident HD onto the external (into one partition, using the rest for normal back ups), in case the resident drive fails again.
I already had an 80GB HD so I've bought an Icy Box USB 2/Firewire casing for it. I need to know:
1. what is the best (cheap would be good too!) software to use for cloning ?
2. how to set it all up properly please (jumper settings on the ext. HD etc.)?
3. will the cloned HD be bootable in the event of a 'resident' failure?
Any help will be much appreciated.
