How do you live without dd?

Anyway, basically what >>56684157 said.

>>56684125
Don't clone the disk. That'll make a 1:1 replica and your bootloader will shit itself because both drives with have the same GUID. Use a backup tool not a cloning tool.

>>56684337
But f it's not actively plugged into the system except when doing the backup isn't it good to do it litterally 1:1 as then if primary fails you can boot?

>>56684562
Yeah I guess. But the goal of a backup is to ensure if your system gets fucked up you have something to fall back on. And its generally better to keep multiple image backups just in case you need to go back further than you thought. What it sounds like you're trying to do is set up redundancy in case a hard drive fails so you should probably just hardware RAID the drives from the BIOS

>>56684337
Can't you just change the GUID though? I swear there was some program on sysinternals for this, but I can't remember what it was.

>>56686003
Yes you can but cloning your disk and changing the GUID every time you want to perform a backup is pretty autismo
