What is the difference between creating an image with Acronis True Image 9.0 and using the
embedded "Disk Clone" tool?
The "Backup" wizard of Acronis True Image 9.0 creates an image file for backup and disaster recovery
purposes, while the "Disk Clone" tool simply copies/moves the entire contents of one hard disk drive to
another. Here's how both tools work and when you should use them.
When you create an image with Acronis True Image 9.0, you get an exact copy of your hard disk, a disk
partition or individual files or folders (you make this choice when you create the image archive). If you
choose to back up a hard disk drive or a partition then every portion of the hard disk that has data written
to it (sectors) is saved into a compressed file — or multiple files if you'd prefer. You can save this image
to any supported storage device and use it as a backup or for disaster recovery. (Note: if Acronis
True Image cannot identify the file system, it creates a sector-by-sector image of the disk. This image is
not compressed and the image file will be the same size as the disk being imaged.)
When you use the "Disk Clone" tool, you effectively copy/move all of the contents of one hard disk drive
onto another hard disk drive. This function allows you to transfer all the information (including operating
system and installed programs) from a small hard disk drive to a large hard disk drive without having to
reinstall and reconfigure all of your software. The migration takes minutes, not hours, but it is not
generally used as a backup strategy.
Do I need to uninstall the existing version of Acronis True Image prior to installing the latest
update?
No, this is not required. You can install the latest update for Acronis True Image 9.0 over the existing
version. To do this, run the installation program and select "Repair/Upgrade Acronis True Image" option.
