[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1753284, member: 131855"] That program has a neat feature tasks that you perform routinely In the upper left pane of the main window is an area called "Tasks", Clicking here sets up a new task which can be give a descriptive name. Now finish setting up the task by choosing the source and destination drives/file locations. You then start the task by clicking the "Clone" button (lower right of the window). The next time you want to perform the same task select it, make sure the drives are available, and click clone. You can have multiple tasks defined each capable of backing up selected files, folders, or the entire drive. After you clone the drive leave it connect and reboot with the option key held down to see if the clone shows up as a boot option. If it does select it and try to boot from it. It's always good to test the clone to see if it works. I've been using the "cloning" procedure with differing pieces of software for years. I've only had the process fail once or twice but it's best to find that out before you need it. [/QUOTE]
