General Terms and Definitions
To simplify working with O&O DiskImage, certain terms will be explained in the following chapters:
Drive/Partition
A drive is a reserved area of the hard disk. Multiple drives can be found on a hard disk. In the following text, the term
drive” will be used to depict (single) partitions as well as logical drives in extended partitions and volumes.
Drives are used, for example, to separate documents from programs. A division in two partitions has become generally
accepted:
l Drive C: for operating systems and programs
l Drive D: for documents, e.g. photos, Office documents, music, etc.
This, for example, makes it easier to separate data and system images with O&O DiskImage.
Image
An image is a "mirror" of your drive (partitions). This copy contains all information taken from the original. A special
feature of an image is that the file format is specially compressed and takes up much less disk space than the original.
The more often you create images of your drive, the less you need worry about data loss. Should data on the original
drive be lost or damaged, you can restore your last image with all its data onto your computer. With just a few mouse
clicks, you can recover the original status of your drive before the last imaging.
An image can be made up of multiple image files (*omg). For example if one disk is not sufficient to store the image and
more are needed, e.g. CD/DVDs.
The term image is also used in a wide sense for file backups.
Difference File backup and Drive image
Files are backuped directly in the form of data. This type of image includes only file information, no drive information is
imaged. The file format is OBK (*.obk).
A drive image stores all used or all sectors of a drive. This automatically also creates an image of the file system and
all files and folders. The file format is OMG (*.omg).
