Question about cloning system
Asked by
pacomet
Hi everyone
I have recently installed Timeshift and started backing up my system. It runs fine storing snapshots in /timeshift. But I would like to save images to another device in case there is any problem with the disk so I can boot from the cloned one.
My system has 4 HDD (1 TB) and I would like one of them to be a clone of the system disk. I see the clone device option in timeshit. My question is, will cloning format or delete data that is actually on the target disk? Should I save that data before cloning? Will it be an exact copy/mirror of the main disk?
Thanks in advance
Paco
