BTW, for a clone, you'll need to start with an empty 'backup' drive.
IIRC the free version is fine, and all I used for a long time, but if
you pay for it, you can do incremental changes to the backup (and
possibly even to the clone?????  Check on that). So that you don't have
to (have it) erase everything and start from scratch every time you do a
new backup (or clone, if this applies to clones).  Takes much less
writing and iirc much less time. Though you can still use the computer
while you're copying t he files so I what difference does the time make?
There are similar programs from other companies, like Minitool, and
AOIME (sp?).
