a hard disk is congured as slave and if a CD/DVD drive or no drive at all

is connected at the same IDE channel as master. Normally, EZ Gig can

handle that, too.

NOTE: If an SATA hard disk is not recognized, this can also be due to the

used SATA controller.

IDE controller not found

There are the following three reasons why EZ Gig has not automatically

recognized an IDE controller:

The IDE controller/channel is deactivated, e.g. on an onboard IDE •

controller. Activate the IDE controller/channel via the BIOS setup.

Standard IDE controllers (ISA) are not taken into account if PCI •

IDE controllers are available. Connect the respective hard disk to a

PCI IDE controller in this case or deactivate the PCI IDE controller

or controllers.

The used controller does not correspond to the PCI IDE standard. •

Although most controllers support this standardized programming

interface, there are some controllers which have only a proprietary

programming interface. Connect the corresponding drives to

another controller (PCI IDE controller).

Source & Destination Size Differences

Equal Size

If source and target are of the same size, EZ Gig creates an absolutely

identical copy(clone). On this clone, all sectors on source and target, from

the rst to the last sector, are 100% identical, provided that the process

was error-free.

Small to large

If the source is smaller than the target, EZ Gig copies only the data that

is available on the source. This data is copied from the beginning of the

source onto the beginning of the target medium. The area at the end of

the target medium, which is larger than the source, remains unaffected.

Apart from that the unaffected area remains possibly unused during a later

usage, such a copy is usually comparable to a real clone as far as the

capacity of use is concerned because the target contains entirely all data of

the source
