It's disk is a regular old HDD but GPT partitioned. I have another PC, with 64-bit Windows 10 on it. It's disk is a Samsung SSD, MBR partitioned. If I create the rescue media on my computer, will I be able to create and restore system images on another computer with a different drive, let's say a regular old HDD or an Intel SSD or nVME or whatever? And what if it has a different type USB make and driver? Will it still work with the Rescue USB made from the other PC? This is still pretty confusing to me although it was already explained in great detail in the other thread (thank you).ġ.1 Another example: Let's say I have a PC with 64-bit capable CPU, but I have installed 32-bit Windows 7 OS on it. What about the disk drivers? I have an internal Samsung nVME 960 EVO as my source drive. Am I getting it right that, the only difference creating rescue media of different PCs are the drivers off of the particular system/PC? So, which drivers - I'm guessing the disk drivers, USB drivers and NIC drivers? I only need the USB driver cause I backup to an external HDD via USB connection. The first three were already discussed in the huge Macrium Reflect thread so I'll continue with those 3 first.ġ. So, I have 2 external HDDs with Macrium system (or rather full-disk) images and I'll soon have a nVME SSD with date file backups mirrored onto it. I don't use any cloud services or any other forms of backup. I also copy the Macrium system image files to another HDD which I store at another location. For the FreeFileSync data file backups I'll be using an external (USB connected) SSD (nVME), because it's fast. I store the system images on an external (USB connected) HDD. All my data + Windows 10 OS is on one internal SSD (Samsung nVME 960 EVO). I am using Macrium Reflect Free for full system images which I do monthly (always offline, with the Rescue boot USB) and I will soon start using FreeFileSync for weekly (or maybe even daily) data file backups. I would like to talk about best practices for backing up a home PC.
