    Oof, seems like this is not free anymore. The "free" version now charges for disk cloning

    Perhaps version 13.8 works, but the current version does not, it forces you to upgrade to Pro.... Waste of time...

    Hi, this is a useful bit of software but I suspect the target disk cannot be smaller that the original, is that true? My original is 16Gb and is the target but is very slightly smaller, so frustrating.

    This doesn't work any more. They make you buy the professional edition to clone partions.

    Hi. Thank you for this video. I think it is just what I need, although I don't need it for my Raspberry (sadly disused at present). I am using a flavour of Peppermint Linux on my laptop, but to avoid having so many partition changes I put it onto an sd card - it is working perfectly, but of course there is the constant danger that the card might become corrupt, with the famous I/O error... So I'd like to clone the card, together with its GRUB and everything. I have also been thinking of whether I could clone it to a pendrive. Any ideas?

    This Would Work For Cloning Micro SD Cards Used In Smart Phones Correct? I Have A 256GB Thats Near Full And Have A 512GB I Want To Clone So I Have More Space etc. My SD Car Was Not Encrypted To Phone When It Was Installed. Does Encrypted Causes Issues When Cloning For Smart Phones?

    • @FrimleyComputing
      @FrimleyComputing  Před 3 lety

      This would work, however you will likely need to extend the partition after cloning to maximise the full size of the new card. If the SD card is encrypted it would need to be decrypted prior to cloning.

      @@Epyxification I have previously been successfull with a tool called "Paragon Backup and recovery". I had an issue with backing up a 32gb card, and not able to restore to another 32gb because it were another brand and "slightly" smaller in size. Paragon helped. But now I have used both Paragon and pro version of AOMEI backuper, and I am having problems with Rasbian freezing in the middle of bootup. I believe there might be an issue with the way Windows reads EXT file system. Using Linux for backing up Raspberry Pi OS might be the most reliable. Should be possible to resize EXT partitions in Linux, but a bit more complicated perhaps.

      Define corrupted. Is the target corrupt? Is the source corrupt? Is it just the data/sectors that are corrupt, or is the SD card physically damaged?
