Getting Information on Disks and Backup Images

The program provides some helpful tools to get information on the properties of disks and peculiarities of existing

backup images.

Viewing Disk Properties

The main tool to view in-depth information on the properties of hard disks is the Disk Map. It represents the actual state

of the computer’s hard disks.

Generally the hard disks are represented on the map by rectangular bars, which also contain small-sized bars. The small-

sized bars represent logical disks (partitions). When you select a large-sized bar, the Explorer Bar displays information

about the disk in a bright, graphical form.

The model and serial number of the disk serve as the title of the browsed page. The disk layout is shown in form of a

circular graph, where the color of a sector corresponds to a file system of an appropriate partition. On the right you may

see a table, which contains the following information:

 Type of hard disk (basic or dynamic),

 Total size (in GB),

 Information on geometry of the disk (amount of sectors per track, heads and cylinders).

Below there is a list of available wizards. If you click a corresponding record the appropriate wizard will be started. All

default values for the operation parameters will correspond to the disk’s settings. The list of wizards contains a detailed

description of tasks that can be performed by the wizard. This nullifies the possibility of selecting the wrong wizard.
