HDClone copies the complete contents of hard disks and other IDE/ATA/SATA, SCSI, and USB media on a physical level. This allows you to create backups or copies of complete operating system installations smoothly. In combination with the special 'SafeRescue' mode, this technique is also perfect for rescuing data in case of defective hard disks.
Furthermore, HDClone works independently of partition layout, file system and operating system. Thus, it also works with proprietary data formats which could not be accessed otherwise. Besides copying complete drives, it is also possible to apply it to certain partitions only.
"HD Clone (freeware)"
Very good program. Very happy with it. It did run a little slow, but it is freeware. I was able to clone my old drive to my new drive flawlessly, and the new drive booted up with out any issues. I'm very happy with this program.
Pros
Freeware, and the other versions aren't expensive. Many options to choose from.
