Ghost dual hard drive copy tips

Ghost is often used in normal work, it is very convenient to restore the system. After using it, I have accumulated some small skills and tested it out and presented it to everyone.

When you perform a disk-to-disk cloning, or a partition between different disks, it is easy to make mistakes in which disk is the source disk and which disk is the target disk. Especially when the two disk size partitions are the same, it is even more difficult to distinguish.

Comparative insurance method is to set the source disk as the master disk and mount it on ide0, mount the target disk on the ide1 port, then enter the bios setting, and set the first item of the system item to ide0. , or the C drive starts. After entering ghost, the first disk is the source disk, and the second one is the target disk, so it is separated.

In fact, in actual work, sometimes the workload is relatively large, you need to hold the source disk one computer for ghost. The computer is usually connected to the line, the hard disk is generally connected to ide0, and the hard disk is the main disk. At this time, it is a waste of time if you turn the line again. The best way is to move the target disk to the ide1 and connect it to ide1. After many trials, I finally figured out what to do. It turns out that the ghost software always uses the hard disk that starts the system as the first hard disk.

For example, we connect the source disk to the ide1 port, and the target disk is connected to the ide0 port. At startup, the startup sequence is adjusted to ide1 startup in bios (that is, booting from the source disk, this is the most critical point). In this way, after entering the system, the first disk can be the source disk, and the second disk is the target disk in the order of the mirror. This saves time in replacing the hard disk cable, thereby saving time and improving efficiency.
