Backup Entire Drive Software

Backup Entire Drive Software is a handy and very easy to understand program whose main function resides in helping you create copies of your system partitions, enabling you to easily restore them and carry on with your work, should something happen to the original data.

In terms of user interface, the application is far from impressive, yet its simplicity can prove appealing to people who feel more complex tools are too demanding.

Backup Entire Drive Software features a small-sized, non-adjustable window, where you can select the source and target locations, then start the process, at the press of a button.

After launching the utility, you can choose the source disk from the dedicated menu, either an internal or a removable storage device. The ‘Refresh’ button enables you to list any recently connected devices.

Subsequently, you can define the save location for the disk that you intend to backup, bearing in mind that it should not match the source drive. Similarly, it should be at least the same size as the partition that you wish to duplicate.

When you click the ‘Start Backup’ button, the tool will commence copying your files and folders in the exact same structure as the original, to a date stamped directory in the destination location. A progress bar informs of you the completion level of the operation.

Since the application features little to no tinkering capabilities, you can only perform a task on demand, as you cannot schedule it to run on regular basis.

In summary, Backup Entire Drive Software is a useful albeit rather basic utility that was developed to help you duplicate a whole computer partition and save it to a removable disk, for instance, so you can recover important data in case your PC crashes or fails, or if you wish to transfer to a new machine.
