Hi,

 

By using Backup and recovery software such as HP Data-Protector, Symantec NetBackup..etc. You can take backup of C:\\ and restore to D:\\ it is possible. You can take RAW disk backup as well to clone.

The hard disk and partition imaging software take a snapshot of your hard disk so that you can restore your system at a later time to the exact same state the system was when you imaged the disk or partition. This is useful for system recovery in case of a hard disk disaster. The term "image" is used because such software often copy the state of the hard disk sector by sector to your image. Hence if your hard disk was (say) defragmented with certain software occupying certain sectors when you backed up, it will be returned to that same state when you restore your backup. The image utilities often do not allow fine control what you backup - you can specify the partitions or hard disks to back up, but you usually will not be able to specify which folders to exclude or include. They are useful for backing up your system drive or partition, that is, the drive that you placed your operating system on. Hard disk imaging software are sometimes also used to clone a hard disk to another (useful for the times you change or upgrade your hard disk.

Simple solutions to simple problems.

 

Scenario #1

If you have multiple partitions in one hard drive and you want to back-up only the files in one partition on that same hard drive, just copy the files from partition (A) to partition (B); from partition (B) you can copy the files to any partition you want, save it externally using storage drives.

 

Scenario #2

If you want to back-up the whole partition including your Operating System (OS), then use third party cloning tools. Google can find you free and good ones.
