It does need to be a little bit bigger that the actual size of the USED space in the C: drive. That space does NOT have to be the entire size of your C: drive. The aim is to create enough Unallocated Space that you can create in it a second Partition that will hold a clone copy of your current C: drive. That leaves all your existing data in the (smaller) Partition on that HDD. To make my process work, you would have to use Disk Management (or Acronis, or something similar) to SHRINK the existing Partition on that HDD to a size small enough to create a chunk of empty space that is Unallocated Space. Instead, this is how I make a bootable "disk" as a backup.įirst, you have a HDD with space on it, but also containing other files already. This is NOT a single file on an existing "disk".
