Once the new drive is installed, the old drive can be used in EZ Upgrades Hi-Speed USB 2.0 enclosure for external storage. When used with EZ Gig II, the external drive becomes a state-of-the-art backup solution.

EZ Gig II Upgrade & Backup software gives the user two options to upgrade or backup their data.

The Clone option creates an exact clone of a hard drive and is perfect for upgrading hard drives, or for a creating a Disaster Recovery clone - the ultimate backup solution.

The Image option is the ideal backup tool. EZ Gig II creates a compressed image of an entire hard drive, or an individual partition of a hard drive. At its maximum setting, the Image option can compress data to less than 1/2 its original size, allowing backups to be made to a smaller hard drive, or multiple backups to a large hard drive.

EZ Gig II also provides password protection for backup images, a comments field so each image can be labeled and easily identified, and verification that the image is complete. The EZ Gig II File Editor allows editing or restoration of individual files or folders.
