No data will be lost because the original disk is only being read (no partitions are changed or
resized) until data transfer is completed.
Nevertheless, we do not recommend that you delete data from the old disk until you are
sure it is correctly transferred to the new disk, the server boots up from it and all
applications work.

12.3 Executing transfers

12.3.1 Selecting Clone mode

You will see the Clone mode window just after the welcome window.

We recommend using automatic mode in most cases. The manual mode can be useful if you
need to change the disk partition layout.
If the program finds two disks, one partitioned and another unpartitioned, it will
automatically recognize the source disk as the partitioned disk and the destination disk as
the unpartitioned disk, so the next two steps will be bypassed.

12.3.2 Selecting source disk

If the program finds several partitioned disks, it will ask you which is the source (i.e. the
older data disk).
