DRIVE AND STORAGE SERVICES
A secure 1:1 disk clone for upgrades, replacement storage or preserving a working system.
HARD DRIVE CLONING
A 1:1 clone copies the operating system, applications, files, partitions, filesystem information and other drive metadata to suitable replacement storage. It is ideal for upgrading a computer to a faster SSD or replacing an ageing drive while keeping the familiar setup intact.
The source and destination drives are checked for size, compatibility and condition before work begins. The computer may be required so the completed clone can be installed and tested.
Average turnaround is 48–72 hours. If the original drive is failing, a recovery-led approach may be safer than a standard clone.
