RDrive Image is a potent utility providing disk image files creation for backup or duplication purposes. A disk image file contains the exact, bytebybyte copy of a harddrive, partition or logical disk and can be created with various compression levels on the fly without stopping Windows OS and therefore without interrupting your business.These drive image files can then be stored in a variety of places, including various removable media such as CDR(W)/DVD, Iomega Zip or Jazz disks, etc.
New RDrive Imagefeatures in version 4.x :
* Windows Vista and 64 bit processors support. New RDrive Image version supports all Windows Vista operating systems and 64 bit processors.
*Acceleration of image creation and disc copy operations. Asynchronous I/O and distributed the zlib compression library were added among different processors. As a result,users can see up to 200% speed gains in image creation and disc copy operations.
* Differential image creation. When the incremental/differential backup is being created, thedifferential image can be created by comparing the current data with the 128bit hash of the original data without reading the main image. That speeds up the process ofcreating the incremental/differential image in any case, but also no need to change the original discs when writing the image to CD/DVD discs.
* Incremental image creationmode. In the previous versions the differential mode was available only.
* A bootable module can be written to a CD/DVD disc together with the image data. Thus it is possibleto create one CD/DVD disc to boot and to restore the system.
* Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) support. In order to create a pointintime snapshot of a database,the servers like Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SQL and Oracle are notified before backup process begins. The technology allows synchronizing the servers’ database andcreating the correct copies of quickchangeable data.
* Dynamic Disks and BSD slices support. Dynamic disks and BSD slices can be backup, restored and copied. The feature issupported in both Windows and bootable versions of RDrive image. You may create an image of one disk or a volume of any type and then restore the image back to a dynamic orbasic disk. However when such image is restored you may not change a size or other characteristics of the target disk. When you restore a dynamic disk image to a basic disk,the basic disk remains basic and is not converted to the dynamic disk.
* A flexible control over CD/DVD writing. That allows limiting the writing speed and cashing in the ISOfile.
* Improved file format of the image created by the application.
* Writing to NTFS partitions. Now the RDrive Image bootable version (based on the Linux kernel) supportswriting to NTFS partitions as well as RDrive Image Windows version.
