4-1 Xpress Recovery2

Xpress Recovery2 is a utility that allows you to quickly compress and back up your system data and perform restoration of it. Supporting NTFS, FAT32, and FAT16 file systems, Xpress Recovery2 can back up data on PATA and SATA hard drives and restore it.

Before You Begin:

•Xpress Recovery2 will check the first physical hard drive* for the operating system. Xpress Recovery2 can only back up/restore the first physical hard drive that has the operating system installed.

•As Xpress Recovery2 will save the backup file at the end of the hard drive, make sure to leave enough unallocated space in advanced (10 GB or more is recommended; actual size require- ments vary, depending on the amount of data).

•It is recommended to back up your system soon after the operating system and drivers are installed.

•The amount of data and hard drive access speed may affect the speed at which the data is backed up/restored.

•It takes longer to back up a hard drive than to restore it.

System Requirements:

•Intel® x86 platform

•At least 64 MB of system memory

•VESA compatible graphics card

•Windows® XP with SP1 or later

•Xpress Recovery and Xpress Recovery2 are different utilities. For example, a backup file

created with Xpress Recovery cannot be restored using Xpress Recovery2.

•USB hard drives are not supported.

•Hard drives in RAID/AHCI mode are not supported.

"*" Xpress Recovery2 checks the first physical hard drive in the following sequence: The first PATA IDE connector, the second PATA IDE connector, the first SATA connector, the second SATA connector and so forth. For example, when hard drives are attached to the first IDE and the first SATA connectors, the hard drive on the first IDE connector is the first physical drive. When hard drives are attached to the first and second SATA connectors, the hard drive on the first SATA connector is the first physical drive.
