Micron Technology Transport LT Advanced Options, Disable SmartSector Copying, Verify Disk Writes

Software Utilities	Drive Image Professional
Advanced Options	The Create Image Advanced Options dialog box appears when you click
	Advanced Options at the Ready To Create Image File screen.

	Clear the Check for File System Errors check box if you want to disable file
	system error checking.
	If you have already used a disk utility program such as ScanDisk to check your
	hard drive for errors, it is not necessary to have Drive Image check for file system
	errors. Clearing the box Check for File System Errors saves time when creating
	the image file.
	If you did not run a disk check utility program before loading Drive Image, leave
	the Check for File System Errors check box selected.
Disable SmartSector Copying	Drive Image’s SmartSector technology speeds up the imaging process by only
	copying clusters and sectors which contain data. However, in some cases, such
	as high-security environments, it may be desirable to copy all clusters and sectors
	in their original layout, whether or not they contain data.
	To copy both used and unused clusters and sectors, click Disable SmartSector
	Copying. Disabling SmartSector copying increases processing time and the size
	of the generated .PQI file.
Verify Disk Writes	Click Verify Disk Writes if you want to enable DOS disk write verification.
	Disk write verification is not critical to safely create image files. Enabling disk write
	verification can slow the image file creation by as much as seven times.
