Jaan Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 We have a couple of machines that have unique usage scenarios with custom software. These computer have a default image assigned to them and we use FOG. For 90%+ of the site, we will just drop the SSD in and re-image. But due to our limited resources, i don't want to have to manually configure bits of software people use (mainly office staff). Is there a free to use bootable USB piece of software people could recommend please? Just clone from one disk to another. This will be the fastest approach for us in this scenario. I used to use Norton Ghost back in the day to do this...... but i'm showing my age now! thanks in advance
Edgehill Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 I use EaseUS at home, but I don't know what the license covers.
ultima170387 Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Macrium Reflect. Used a couple of times, always done the job for me - don't know about the usb bootable part though
LeMarchand Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 https://clonezilla.org/liveusb.php +1 for this, though it's not the most user-friendly.
round2it Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 clone zilla for me not sure if it copes with different size source and destination drives though
timbo343 Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 (edited) Dont need bootable, just use aomei backupper. Simple and straight forward and does both larger to smaller as long as the used space on source fits on the smaller. Alsonahs an option to optimise for SSD which needs ticking.

bald_pig Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 clone zilla for me not sure if it copes with different size source and destination drives though Not for larger to smaller, but can go smaller to larger, just shrink the partition in windows disk management first.
