A string of successful software products in the hard disk arena form the basis of O&O DiskImage 2. As millions of our happy customers worldwide will testify, O&O has over the years gained considerable expertise in moving files during defragmentation. By using this experience, O&O has now developed a product that enables you to image and restore your entire hard disk. O&O DiskImage 2 supports all important functions and combines this with a user friendly interface for the quick and simple imaging or restoration of data. O&O DiskImage can perform either an incremental imaging or just as easily image an entire system. The imaged data can then be encrypted and also compressed to various different levels. The splitting of images onto different storage volumes can either be individually set or O&O DiskImage 2 will automate the splitting. Should only particular files or directories from an image be required, it is not necessary to restore the whole image. Images can be mounted as drives with O&O DiskImage 2 enabling direct access to individual files or directories. Just like with O&O BlueCon 6 or the O&O RescueBox 4, O&O DiskImage 2 comes delivered on a start capable CD based on Windows PE with full Windows driver support, enabling the complete recovery of a system image without prior installation. Users of O&O DiskImage 2 therefore have the so-called BareMetal technology at their disposal, without the need to first create a Start medium. The creation or restoration of an image is significantly accelerated by the native support of 64-bit and multiprocessor systems. O&O DiskImage 2 supports Windows XP 64-bit as well as multiprocessor technology. O&O DiskImage 2 Professional Edition is compatible with Windows 2000 Pro and all editions of Windows XP and Vista.
