The Leader in Personal Storage

38

MAC Software Includes: ShirtPocket SuperDuper! and Synchronize! X for

Mac.

Synchronize! X for Mac is a file synchronization and backup utility for

personal data on Mac OS X. Synchronize! X will backup your personal data to

another disk, so that it is safe. It can sync your home folder with a file server,

or your PowerBook, or a FireWire disk, so that the newest files are in both

locations.

SuperDuper! is the wildly acclaimed program that makes recovery painless,

because it makes creating a fully bootable backup painless. Its incredibly

clear, friendly interface is understandable, easy to use. And it runs beautifully

on both Intel and Power PC Macs! SuperDuper’s interface confirms all your

actions in simple, clear language to ensure that the end result is exactly what

you intended.

8. What is the difference between “cloning” and “imaging”?

Disk Cloning is a bit for bit copy of one drive to another. In doing so, a Clone

can boot and run the operating system. The data is exactly the same on both

drives.

Disk Imaging copies the data on the drive and stores it as a file. This file

can be compressed to a smaller size to take up less space. The Image is not

bootable.

9. Can I make a clone of my drive and put it in a different machine?

A clone is for disaster recovery purposes (i.e. when your drive fails and you

need to get back up and running). No, you should not make a clone of your

drive and put it in another or multiple machines. There are licensing issues for

the software on your machine.

10. Is it possible to restore a single file from an image stored on my EZ

Bus DTS?

Yes. EZ Gig II allows you to mount an image as a “virtual” hard drive. You can

access this “virtual” drive as if it were a physical hard drive. You would use

your

Windows Explorer or My Computer and copy the file or folder and

paste it on to your hard drive.
