How to copy a partition

Prerequisite

To copy a partition requires a sufficient amount of unallocated space on the destination disk. This space must be as large as the partition but may be bigger.

Startup

Select Copy & Migration > Copy Partition.

On start the wizard checks any harddisk if it’s able to receive the partition. If there are unsuitable harddisks the software provides a link “Why the wizard cannot work with my disks?”. A click on this link offers a detailed explanation why the respective disk is uncapable of taking the partition.

Setup

The wizard offers the following steps to accomplish the copy partition operation:

The partition to copy. Select a partition you want to copy.

Destination disk. Select a hard disk with enough unallocated space to perform the operation.

Copy parameters. Set parameters of resulting partition.

Result

After the operation is completed you receive a fully functional duplicate of the existing partition.
