Clone to disk partition (not whole disk)?

Thread needs solution

I would like to clone my hard disk (250 GB) not to a whole disk but to a 500 GB (empty) partition of a 1 TB external hard disk. Is that not possible? If it is, how do I do it?

No. A clone is an exact copy of the source disk and will erase everything on your external if you do this. A better approach is to make a full disk backup that can be restored as needed. See http://forum.acronis.com/forum/3426 for some help.
