Product Components

In order to cope with different tasks, the product contains several components:

 Windows based set of utilities is the crucial part of the product. With the help of an easy to use launcher you

may find and run tasks of any complexity in the field of data and system protection, hard disk partitioning and

cloning, etc.

 Linux/DOS based recovery environment is a multi-platform bootable media that enables to run utilities under

Linux or PTS DOS, and that way to get access to your hard disk for maintenance or recovery purposes. Both

platforms have their strong sides, for instance Linux can boast support of FireWire (i.e. IEEE1394) or USB

devices. It enables to burn CD/DVD disks. However there can be some difficulties with detecting new hardware.

DOS in its turn has no problems of that kind but is limited in features. The Linux/DOS recovery environment

requires no installation and can be of great help when the system fails to boot. Besides it offers a Windows XP

like environment.

 WinPE based recovery environment. Especially for keen followers of Windows, our product also offers a WinPE

3.0 based bootable media. Unlike the Linux/DOS recovery environment it can boast an excellent hardware

support and the same interface as the Windows version can. However its system requirements are much

tougher.
