Protecting Local Disks Even if your computer has only one hard disk, two items display in this list. The first item represents the entire hard disk, and the second item represents the partition on that disk. If there's only one partition on the disk, the partition is the same as the entire disk. If your hard disk is divided into multiple partitions, this list displays one item for the entire hard disk, and one item for each partition. If your computer has multiple hard disks, this list displays an item for each entire disk and an item for each partition on each disk. Each partition is identified by its drive letter. Note: Dynamic disks are not supported. If you select an entire disk, all the partitions on that disk are protected as a single entity. This means that you cannot later recover only one partition; you have to recover the entire disk. If you select just a partition, you can subsequently recover just that partition. In addition, you can recover a data disk or partition using Intel® Client Backup and Recovery, but you can recover a system disk or partition only using the recovery CD or when booting remotely from a backup on the storage system. Therefore, if you have separate partitions for your system information and your data, you might want to protect each one separately. Intel® Entry Storage System SS4000-E User Guide 99
