Twocanoes Software's (www.twocanoes.com) Winclone 5, the latest version of the Boot Camp cloning and migration solution for the Mac, adds Winclone Backup, a simple-to-use utility for backing up mission-critical Boot Camp user files.
Winclone Backup is included in all editions of Winclone 5 and makes automatic Boot Camp file backups easy and reliable. The software creates an exact copy of all the contents of a Boot Camp partition for use as a back up or to migrate a Boot Camp partition to a new Mac.
If disaster strikes, you can restore from a Winclone image along with Winclone Backup files to a current, fully recovered Boot Camp system. The Winclone Backup solution also ensures that historical versions of files can be located and recovered.
Winclone 5 is available in three editions. Winclone Basic (US$19.99) is for simple cloning and restoring on one Mac. Winclone Standard ($39.99) for migration between Macs and to external drives and disk-to-disk cloning. Winclone Pro ($99.99) is for large-scale Boot Camp deployments.
Winclone 5 features include:
° The ability to clone an entire Boot Camp partition to an image file;
° The ability to restore from a Winclone image file to a bootable Boot Camp system;
° "Set and forget" incremental file-based Boot Camp backup solution;
° Support for OS X Core Storage volumes;
° The ability to restore Winclone images to smaller or larger Boot Camp partitions;
° The ability to clone from a mounted Windows PC drive;
