FAQ cont.
. What software is included with my EZ Upgrade?
PC Software Includes: EZ Gig II, and SMART-ER
EZ Gig II for Windows is one of the most powerful yet easy to use backup
utilities available. EZ Gig II is the second generation of the award winning EZ
Gig Data Transfer Utility. It now supports transferring data via USB, PC Card,
or internal IDE Bus. EZ Gig II is comprised of two modules:
Disk Clone is ideal for users who require an exact copy of their hard drive.
A cloned copy of a hard drive can be used for disaster recovery backup, or as
a hard drive upgrade.
Disk Image takes a snapshot of your entire system and compresses it into
a file up to half its original size. This method takes up less space, thus allow-
ing multiple backups to a single drive. The Image option allows the restora-
tion of individual files or folders and a password to be assigned to a backup
image, providing security for your data. A detailed description for each image
can be entered giving the user total flexibility to retain backups from multiple
dates, or multiple computers.
SMART-ER polls the S.M.A.R.T. data from a hard drive, giving the user
advanced warning of a hard drive failure with a pop up message or e-mail to
the IT administrator. Using less than 1MB of system resources, SMART-ER
also monitors the hard drive free space. SMAT-ER is compatible with both
SATA and PATA/IDE hard drives.
MAC Software Includes: ShirtPocket SuperDuper! for Mac
SuperDuper! is the wildly acclaimed program that makes recovery painless,
because it makes creating a fully bootable backup painless. Its incredibly
clear, friendly interface is understandable, easy to use. And it runs beautifully
on both Intel and Power PC Macs! SuperDuper's interface confirms all your
actions in simple, clear language to ensure that the end result is exactly what
you intended.
10.What is the difference between "cloning" and "imaging"?
Disk Cloning is a bit for bit copy of one drive to another. In doing so, a Clone
can boot and run the operating system. The data is exactly the same on both
drives. Disk Imaging copies the data on the drive and stores it as a file. This
file can be compressed to a smaller size to take up less space. The Image is
not bootable.
