[QUOTE="Christopher, post: 411104, member: 25625"] No, I don't mean in terms of losing it. What I am saying is, does cloning take up the whole drive? and thus, it would be best to partition your drive so that one partition is dedicated to your clone of your primary/startup drive, and the rest you can use for storage? Because I think that adding stuff to the drive you cloned to (your 500GB drive), might mess up the clone, especially when you go to update it. So it may be best to create a specific partition for your clone? To have the rest of the drive available and separate. I definitely do not know though! [/QUOTE]
