I've tried putting both drives on a desktop PC's sata bus, and imaging them that way, and the process fails with a log entry indicating 'block bitmap corrupted'. I've tried installing the SSD in the laptop and putting the HDD in an enclosure, and that can't detect the HDD. I tried the rescue media, too, and it also locks up. However, when it reboots to clone the drive, it locks up, with a flashing caps lock light. Crucial's SSDs come with Acronis True Image.

Backups and images can also be created on the backup server.I've got laptops I'm trying to install SSD drives in. Storing images locally provides an easy way of restoring a damaged system when the central server is inaccessible.

A Secure Zone is an area of disk that can be accessed only by the True Image software. It can create bootable rescue systems on a variety of storage media, while its imaging facilities can be used to move an existing operating system and software from an installed drive to a new one.Īrchives and images can be created using local storage in designated Secure Zones. On top of the agent software’s facilities, it gives local control over backup and recovery, plus other imaging and archiving operations. This release also provides the Echo Enterprise Server local software, which can be installed on individual workstations. The lack of Linux versions of the management and Backup Server software means any network using Linux exclusively will need a Windows system installed to use the software. Acronis supports FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS file systems on Windows and ext2, ext3, JFS, ReiserFS and Reiser 4 on Linux, making it suitable for use in most mixed network situations. It provides access to the system’s job scheduling system that can be set up to provide an automatic backup and system-imaging environment. All are controlled by the Management Console software, which can also carry out remote installations of the agent software. Local agents are available for both Windows and Linux systems.
