Protecting Local Disks - 99

2. In the Available disks list, select the disk or partition that you need to protect.

Even if your computer has only one hard disk, two items appear in this list. The first item represents

the entire hard disk, and the second item represents the partition on that disk. (If there’s only one parti-

tion on the disk, the partition is the same as the entire disk.)

If your hard disk is divided into multiple partitions, this list displays one item for the entire hard disk,

and one item for each partition. If your computer has multiple hard disks, this list displays an item for

each entire disk and an item for each partition on each disk. Each partition is identified by its drive let-

ter.

If you select an entire disk, all the partitions on that disk are protected as a single entity. This means

that you can’t later recover only one partition; you must recover the entire disk. If you select just a par-

tition, you can subsequently recover just that partition.

In addition, you can recover a data disk or partition using DiskSafe Express, but you can recover a sys-

tem disk or partition only using the recovery CD, so if you have separate partitions for your system

information and your data, you might want to protect each one separately.

Note: Dynamic disks are not supported.

Note:

• If your computer has only one disk with one partition, select the disk.

• If your disk has a system partition and a data partition, select one of the partitions

and complete the wizard. Then run the wizard again and protect the other parti-

tion. This provides complete protection with maximum flexibility.

• If you have several disks and several partitions on each, select either one of the

disks or one of the partitions and complete the wizard. Then run the wizard again

and protect another disk or partition.
