Check source for file system errors
|
Check the source drive for errors before you copy it. The source
drive is the original drive.
|
Check destination for file system errors
|
Check the destination drive for errors after you copy the drive.
The destination drive is the new drive.
|
Resize drive to fill unallocated space.
|
This option automatically expands the drive to occupy the
destination drive's remaining unallocated space.
|
Set drive active (for booting OS)
|
Make the destination drive the active partition (the drive from
which the computer starts). Only one drive can be active at a time.
To boot the computer, it must be on the first physical hard disk,
and it must contain an operating system. When the computer boots,
it reads the partition table of the first physical hard disk to
find out which drive is active. It then boots from that location.
If the drive is not bootable or you are not certain if it is, have
a boot disk ready. You can use the Symantec Recovery Disk CD.
The Set drive active option is valid for basic disks only (not
dynamic disks).
|
Disable SmartSector copying
|
The SmartSector technology from Symantec speeds up the copying
process by only copying the clusters and sectors that contain data.
However, in a high-security environments, you might want to copy
all clusters and sectors in their original layout, regardless of
whether they contain data.
|
Ignore bad sectors during copy
|
This option copies the drive even if there are errors on the
disk.
|
Copy MBR
|
This option copies the master boot record from the source drive
to the destination drive. Select this option if you are copying the
C:\ drive to a new, empty hard drive. You should not select this
option if you want to copy a drive to another space on the same
hard drive as a backup. You should also not select this option if
you want to copy the drive to a hard drive that has existing
partitions that you do not want to replace.
|
