Disk cloning is the copying of the contents of one hard disk to another hard disk. In the alternative, a cloning copy can also be saved as an "image" file; a compressed file containing a "snap shot" of the hard drive's contents.

Is cloning a disk the same as backing up a PC system?

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.
