²Quick Copy mode is used by default. In this mode the program will copy (or move) only sectors used currently for storing data. Supported are file systems listed in the table only.
Sector-by-sector copy mode lets you to copy all sectors of source partition/hard disk including those which are marked as unused or bad. This mode is useful to copy partitions/hard disks with partition-bounded software. In this mode the program can copy or move partition of any file system.

³ While copying, resize function is also available. In the case of partition copy, you can change the size of target partition. In the case of hard disk, the appropriate transformation of partition sizes is possible in accordance with target hard disk size. Check the table for file system support.

⁴ Recovery CD is bootable CD containing full functionality of the program and additionally offering full access to all FAT, NTFS, Ext2 and Ext3 partitions on local hard drives. Even in the case of unbootable system you can boot machine from Recovery CD, access important documents and copy them in secure place, try to fix crashed operating system or perform any partitioning operation. Recovery CD is different for different versions of the program (Recovery CD - Personal Version, Recovery CD - Professional Version)

⁵ Virtual pre-execution. Perform all intended operations virtually, evaluate final state and either apply changes to be realized physically or discard them.
