We are using BESR 8.5.  There does not seem to be an option to do a disk to disk image.   Is this possible using the software?

Without creating an image

Without creating an image file.  So, we have a PC that has a 80 GB drive, we want to hook up a 320 GB and image the partition from the 80 to the 320 without an image file.  Is this possible like it is with programs such as powerquest?

If I correctly understand

If I correctly understand what you are asking,  go to tools and there is a "Copy my Hard Drive" feature.  That should allow you to directly image from the 80gb to the 320gb.  Hope that helps.

Copy My Hard Drive

From within the BESR console, select Tasks->Copy My Hard Drive. Select the source HD then the Destination HD. The current destination HD's data will be overwritten with the soure HD data.

Hope This Helps :)

Disk to disk using SRD

Using the SRD CD can you image a disk to another disk?  I see the Backup My Computer option but it looks like it is creating an image and I don't see an option to write it disk to disk.
