R-Drive Image 7.1.7110 instal the new for mac

It was non-fatal, which indicates superior error-checking, and R-Tools shipped me a fix (build 7001) almost immediately. Oddly enough, I did get my first-ever R-Drive Image error code with version 7.0 (7000 build) when selecting the modify function of the partition manager on an external, exFAT-formatted USB drive. Note that the company’s R-Studio supports Apple Silicon, so perhaps there’s ARM support in R-Drive Image’s future. I wrote most of this article with a very large backup running on my 2015 iMac (running Windows via Boot Camp) and forgot it was in progress. If you’re using older hardware, R-Drive Image is by far your best bet. The minimum system requirement is only that the CPU be Intel-based. When I say R-Drive Image consumes few resources, I’m not kidding. I’ve never seen a job-failed message unless the hard drive was beyond hope. R-Drive Image 7.1 complete s its multi-partition backup task successfully. Don’t laugh-optical media is still in widespread use for corporate archiving.

The program even burns CDs and DVDs on its own. You can save your images just about anywhere and to just about any media. R-Drive Image also supports hardware RAID (as single volumes) and software RAID: Windows, Apple, and Linux mdadm. Other file systems are supported on a byte-by-byte (all sectors are backed up-containing data or not) basis with no preview or file-level access from within the program. It understands Microsoft’s FAT (16/32), NTFS, and exFAT formats Apple’s HFS/HFS+, and APFS as well as the Little and Big Endian variants of UFS1/UFS2 and Ext2/Ext3/Ext4 FS (Linux), and ReFS. It will also verify them, copy disk-to-disk (cloning), and mount images as virtual disks that you can browse and recover individual files and folders from.

R-Drive Image will create full (all data), incremental (all data changed since the last image), or differential (all data changed since the original full image) images. But, hey, R-Tools, if you’re ever bored…. Honestly, I can’t be too sore about the omission, as porting it to the older DOS-like GUI would likely be a lot of work. Alas, the new partitioning facilities are only available from the modern GUI. Clockwise from upper left: R-Drive Image’s old Windows/Linux boot interface, the still existent character-based interface from the Linux boot disk, and the latest Windows/Linux boot GUI.īoth the new GUI and DOS-like interfaces are available from the Linux boot disc, however the WinPE version features the new GUI only.
