Re: Mirror Software

I have been really searcing for a way to create a bootable mirror 
drive, running Win 95. I sent an e-mail to the dealers of this 
software. This is their response:

Hi Bob,

I'm afraid that FileSync can't do what you require. FileSync copies
only at the logical file level and would not therefore be able to make
a bootable copy of a drive. All the files could be copied, hidden,
system etc... except for those that are open for modification (like
the swap file).

Best regards

Greetings!

Is it possible to use FileSync to create a bootable drive, which is an
exact copy of the original, on a second physicial hard drive which is
configured as the slave?

Thanks in advance!

No, I don't use it I just came across it surfing the net. 
But for 15$ you can't go wrong if you need something like this.
