Hey folks, I wanted to share this tool I recently came across, called Rescuezilla - not seen it mentioned a lot here on Lemmy. It's a neat little tool worth keeping on an usb-stick.

What is Rescuezilla?

Rescuezilla is a backup/recovery solution. It's a Clonezilla GUI that's fast, feature-packed and very easy-to-use, even for everyday computer users.

Main features:

  • Disk Imaging: Easily create full images of your hard drives or partitions for backup or migration.
  • Restoration: Quickly restore disk images to the original drive or a different one, making recovery a breeze.
  • Cross-Platform Support: Works with various operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • Live Environment: Runs from a live USB or CD, so you can back up or restore your system without booting into your installed OS.
  • File System Support: Compatible with multiple file systems, making it versatile for different storage devices.

No that's either HDD Regenerator or SpinRite. Clonezilla is a sector-by-sector disk imaging program. (SpinRite et al are good for keeping old drives running for longer but if you want to do data recovery and really value your data, ddrescue or HDDSuperClone is what you want.)
