Recovering an entire non-system disk or partition: If you protected a disk or partition that isn’t being used to run the operating system, you can recover that disk or partition using DiskSafe Express. You might need to do this if the disk has become corrupted or the data has been extensively damaged. The entire disk or partition will be restored to its exact state at the time of the selected backup.

Warning: When you recover non-system disks or partitions, you will lose any data that was written to the disk after the time of the selected backup, as well as any backups that were performed after the backup you’re recovering. It is recommended that you copy any newer files that you want to keep to another disk before you recover the disk. To copy files from a backup, refer to Section 4.3.1.

In addition, if network errors occur or the storage system shuts down during recovery, your operating system might become unstable, and you will have to recover it using the recovery CD (or re-install the operating system if you did not protect your system disk). Be sure to recover your disks or partitions only when your environment is stable.

You can continue to use your computer for other tasks while the data is being recovered, although not any applications or files located on the disk or partition that you’re recovering.

For more information, refer to Section 4.3.2.

Recovering an entire system disk or partition: If you need to recover your system disk or partition - that is, the disk or partition used to run the operating system - you can do so using the recovery CD. This is particularly useful if the hard disk has failed and has been repaired or replaced, or if you want to duplicate an existing disk configuration for another computer. The entire disk or partition will be recovered to its exact state at the time of the selected backup. However, you won’t be able to use your computer until all this process is complete.

For more information, refer to Section 4.3.3.
