Cloning a disk and backing up a PC system are related but distinct processes. Cloning a disk creates an exact copy of the entire hard drive, including the operating system, applications, and all data, allowing for quick recovery or migration to a new drive. In contrast, backing up a PC system typically involves creating copies of specific files and folders or system images, which may not include everything on the disk. While both aim to protect data, cloning is often used for disk replacement, while backups are more about data preservation and recovery.
BackUpPC is a system for backing up Linux, WinXX and Mac OSX PCs and laptops to a server's disk. It is an open source system, which means it is free and anyone can improve it.
