Zlon HDD cloning and imaging

Zlon capabilities

Zlon is a disk imaging tool. It can create a copy of the hard drive in its entirety. Various applications include

Simplistic backup implementation (backup the entire physical disk).

Securing the evidence in computer forensics.

The backed up image can be either deployed onto the physical disk or fed into the data recovery or forensic software (e.g. ZAR).

Disk cloning vs. disk imaging - what's the difference?

"Disk cloning" is a process of creating the identical copy of a physical disk on another physical disk.
The process of deploying multiple identically configured systems by cloning the hard drive of the reference installation is often called "system cloning".
"Disk imaging" implies that a resulting "image" is stored in the file rather than on a disk. The image file is mostly used to hold a dormant copy of data. This copy would not be readily accessible, for there exists no easy way to access the filesystem stored inside the image file.

ZAR also stands for Ze Art of Rescue.

I am not tech savy at all... which is how I somehow reformatted the disc in my digital camera on the last day of vacation, and lost all my photos and videos. I came across this download and gave it a try. [...] I did have to refer back to the demo for guidance on selecting the right "physical device". The selections it gave me were unrecognizable to me. The demo helped me understand what I was looking for. All pictures are recovered, and I am grateful! The movies were recovered as pictures (large jpeg files). I can't figure out how to convert them back to movies. Regardless, I am thrilled to have my pictures back.
