[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1831115, member: 46727"] Block by block cloning is a left over method used by Windows cloning applications. It's likely most folks who are familiar with Norton Ghost or Acronis might be thinking that all cloning software works the same way. However, there are Windows apps that can now clone using the file by file method - "Clonezilla", "EaseUS", Paragon, etc. Speaking of fragmentation (mentioned above) the once expensive Mac program "iDefrag" is now open and free. The only problem is that it doesn't work with APFS and it's 32 bit. [/QUOTE]
