7. 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 as if it is the original drive.
The data is same on both drives. A Disk Image 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.
8. The drive works at home but when I take it to work, I cannot see the
drive in My Computer.
You may have a network drive that is mapped to the same letter as the
2.5" External Hard Drive wants to use. You can use Disk Management
(right-click My Computer, select Manage and then Disk Management) to
assign a new drive letter. Locate the drive in the lower window and right
click in the bar graph area. Right-click and select "change drive letter
and path..." to change the letter to one that is not being used.
9. Is it possible to restore a single file from an image stored on my
2.5" External Hard Drive ?
Yes. EZ Gig II allows you to mount an image as a "virtual" hard drive.
You can access this "virtual" drive as if it was a physical hard drive. You
would use your Windows Explorer or My Computer and copy the file
or folder and paste it on to your hard drive.
10. Why am I unable to save a file larger then 4GB on to my 2.5" External
Hard Drive ?
Fat 32 has a file size limitation of 4 GB. If you are using Windows 2000
or XP, you can reformat the drive to NTFS. By reformatting the drive to
NTFS, you eliminate the 4GB limitation, but you will also lose any data
stored on the drive. Either reformat my 2.5" External Hard Drive to NTFS
before using for the first time, or backup the data on 2.5" External Hard
Drive before reformatting.
11. I am unable to format my 80GB or larger 2.5" External Hard Drive
with FAT 32 in Windows 2000, XP or Vista?
Windows 2000 and XP limit a FAT32 partition to 32 GB. If you choose to
format the drive in a larger the 32 GB partition, you will need to use the
NTFS file system.
12. Can I boot Windows to my USB Device?
No. Because of limitations (both hardware and software) Windows is
currently prevented from booting and running off a USB drive.
