Clone a SATA disk to external USB disk and then back to SATA disk






I need to clone a SATA disk from a Windows 7 computer to an external USB disk. After that I will replace the SATA disk with a new one and copy what is on the USB disk to the new SATA drive.


I have tried to do this with Partition Wizard, but I was not able to make the Windows 7 system boot.


Which software can I use for this?


Answer



Ghost, g4l, acronis or any Backup Tools included in the HirensBootCD.


In some situations the mbr doesn't work after a deploy of the image but you could fix it with a winpe disk or the HBC utility to recovery the mbr.


good luck!
