Paragon Drive Copy 15 Professional Key Features
- Copy & Migration
- Paragon Drive Copy 15 Professional includes latest innovations in migration of Windows OS and data to different environments. When upgrading to newer or just replacing failed hardware, comfortably move your Windows to a completely different hardware platform. Our unique P2P (Physical-to-Physical) technology guarantees the startup of your system on a dissimilar hardware configuration. Automatic partition alignment* aligns partitions to ensure best drive performance.
By the way: When copying a partition or a complete hard drive to a new device, you can easily exclude data you want to exclude from the copy process. - Migrate OS to SSD
- Want to take advantage of the performance a fast SSD has to offer? But how to migrate a Windows OS and hundreds of gigabytes of data on one huge volume to a SSD drive of 80-128GB? Drive Copy makes it easy to move your existing system to that type of storage medium. The integrated Migrate OS to SSD wizard performs fast and safe Windows migrations to SSDs and downsizes to smaller capacity drives. It allows you to separate user and system data from one another and distribute them among different target hard disks so you can make the most out of your space on a new speedy SSD.
- Virtualization
- Drive Copy helps you to easily transfer your physical system to a virtual environment such as VMware Workstation, Oracle Virtual Box or MS Virtual PC. This opens up enormous opportunities, for example, create a virtual clone of your old system and enjoy working with old applications you can’t launch on your new PC. Thanks to Connect VD you can use your virtual disk as if it’s an ordinary physical disk.
- Recovery Medium
- The new Recovery Media Builder 3.0 makes it extremely easy and flexible to create your own personal recovery environment. And thanks to the latest WinPE technology, the recovery environment is also intuitive to operate. If your operating system won’t boot up anymore, you can fire up your PC with the bootable Paragon recovery environment and load in an existing backup, secure important data or rectify booting errors.
- Clone hard disk
- Drive Copy creates an exact clone of an existing partition or hard disk. Unlike ordinary copying of HDD data, our program not only copies user's data, but transfers the entire HDD content, including metadata, service structures, settings etc. to a new hard drive. This approach enables to successfully clone system hard drives with no additional effort like manual configuration or adjustments.
