Best way to clone an EFI based hard disk


3 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

I have an EFI based 500GB hard drive with 3 partitions. One has CarbonCopy of Leopard, one has CarbonCopy of Snow Leopard and the third is used as time machine for SL. The hard drive has developed some bad sectors recently and I want to move the content off it before it is too late. Is there some app I can use to clone the whole drive to another 500GB?

Thanks.

May try Clonzilla Live CD and use clone disc to disc mode>advanced options. It should clone the disk completely regardless of file system used. I'm not saying it is the only option, just my 5ct.

 

And if that does not work seeing the HD's are the same size, partition destination HD the same as source HD. Clone each partition separately with CCC and install Chameleon to make it bootable.
