When restoring a disk drive, any content that exists on the target hard drive or drive partition will
be erased.

you may select a larger partition. In some cases, you may need to select a target partition that is the same
size as the original partition.
When you select a drive to restore, you must pay attention to the compatibility of the file systems between
the source backup and the target drive. The following table lists all compatible combinations of source and
