I am currently licensed for True Image 2014. I want to temporarily clone an old RAID 0 array to a single HDD and then copy it back to a new RAID 0 array with assurance that the new array will be complete and bootable.I actually want to do this twice: once for a Win 7 partition and again for a Win 10 partition.

Question 1: What TI2014 tool should I use to do this job?

Question 2: Does it matter if the single drive I temporarily clone to is an external USB drive?

Question 3: Should I upgrade to TI2016 before doing this job?

Question 4: Is it possible to simply upgrade the True Image without all the "cloud" stuff?

John,

Are the Win 7 and Win 10 partitions on the same drive/raid 0?  If so, then you don't have to perform separate operations for each partition.

Answer to Q1.  There are 2 ways to accomplish this task using 2014 (or 2016).  You can perform a "clone" operation, which I will discuss later, or you can perform a "disk mode" backup of the Raid 0 and then a "restore" to the SSD.  If you decide to perform the clone, then I would still recommend performing a "disk mode" backup, for protection.  And if you do the recommended backup, then you may as well perform the restore instead of the clone.  If you decide to perform the clone, you need to create the rescue media, boot from the rescue media, and ensure that ATI 2014, running under rescue media can see your Raid 0.  There is a good possibility that ATI 2014 running under rescue media won't see your Raid 0.  In this case you would have to create a WinPE rescue media, and depending on which version of ATI 2014 you have, this may force you to upgrade to ATI 2016.

Answer to Q2.  The target drive for the clone or the restore can be connected via USB.  However, the drive will NOT boot when attached throught USB.  To confirm that the drive is bootable, you will have to install the drive into your computer and point the BIOS to that drive.

Answer to Q3.  ATI 2014 is fully capable of performing the operation, provided it sees the Raid 0 when booted from rescue media.

Answer to Q4.  Acronis sell a version of ATI 2016 that does not include the cloud.  This version still has a cloud sign in that you have to X out of each time you run ATI 2016.  You can read a lot of complaints about this throught the blog.

Let us know how you proceed and how things go.

FtrPilot, thanks very much for your quick and thorough reply. I need to spend some time thinking about what you've suggested and then maybe ask for some clarification. i'd like to avoid anything like a rescue media if possible. I do have two computers ( well, motherboards to be precise) available. Btw, will a USB thumb drive serve as a rescue media? Again thanks! John Hixson

John,

Yes, a USB thumb drive can be used for the rescue media....You need rescue media, in the event you have a disk crash that will not boot.  Rescue media boots to a Linux OS and runs a Linux version of ATI.  The Linux OS may not have the drivers necessary to see the Raid 0.  The reason you want to boot from rescue media is that if you set up the clone in Windows, ATI has to take full control of the drive and the only way to do that is reboot.  There are many threads on this blog where the user set up the clone in Windows, when the "proceed" button was hit, the computer reboots into Linux OS, and the Linux OS is missing a driver for the disk.  The clone fails with no error message and boots back into Windows.  Then the upset user wants to know why.

I am ready to answer any questions.

Regards,

FtrPilot
