Image creation mode

Location: Options > Advanced > Image creation mode

This option is not available for the backups that use Acronis Cloud as a backup destination.

You can use these parameters to create an exact copy of your whole partitions or hard disks, and not only the sectors that contain data. For example, this can be useful when you want to back up a partition or disk containing an operating system that is not supported by True Image. Please note that this mode increases processing time and usually results in a larger image file.

• To create a sector-by-sector image, select the Back up sector-by-sector check box.
• To include all unallocated disk space into the backup, select the Back up unallocated space check box.

  This check box is available only when the Back up sector-by-sector check box is selected.
