What are the applications of Disk Cloning?

There are various uses of disc cloning such as :

- Reboot and restore: This technique is used to clean a hard disk completely by formatting / deleting all the data present on it and then the data is restored via a clean image of the data / operating system.

- Provisioning new computers: Instead of having the user to install various applications one by one a standard defined software with all the necessary application already installed can be directly used by the user.

- Hard Drive Upgrade: The disk cloning utility can be used to restore the previous disks image to a new hard drive without actually reinstalling everything.

- Full System Backup: By using the disk clone utility a user can save and restore the entire image of the system.
