Backup Simply With File Cloning
Clonezilla is a free backup and recovery utility that partitions a disk and utilizes an imaging and cloning approach to create file copies for potential recovery after catastrophic failures, akin to Norton's Ghost.
Designed for single-machine backup and restore tasks, Clonezilla Live suits individual users, while the server edition (SE) is tailored for broader deployment, ideal for office settings. SE can clone over 40 computer terminals simultaneously and boasts impressive restoration speeds, supporting various file systems including NTFS, HFS+, GNU/Linux, VMFS5, and NetBSD. AES-256 encryption ensures secure data access, and the program allows single image restoration to multiple local devices.
With essential functions for comprehensive system backups, Clonezilla requires minimal hardware, like a CD/DVD drive, USB port, or PXE for booting.
