6.3.9 Assigning a letter to the restored partition

Acronis True Image Echo Server will assign an unused letter to a restored partition. You
can select the desired letter from a drop-down list. If you set the switch to No, no letters
will be assigned to the restored partition, hiding it from OS.
You should not assign letters to partitions inaccessible to Windows, such as to those other
than FAT and NTFS.

6.3.10 Restoring several disks or partitions at once

During a single session, you can restore several partitions or disks, one by one, by
selecting one disk and setting its parameters first and then repeating these actions for
every partition or disk to be restored.
If you want to restore another disk (partition), select Yes, I want to restore another
partition or hard disk drive
. Then you will return to the partition selection window
(7.3.4) again and will have to repeat the above steps. Otherwise, do not set this switch.

separately and installed from a separate setup file. The following is true for Acronis True
Image Echo Server installations including Acronis Universal Restore.
1. Using Acronis Universal Restore will help you create a bootable system clone on
different hardware (for more information see

). Choose this

when restoring a system disk to a computer with a dissimilar processor, different
motherboard or other mass storage device than in the imaged system.

2. If the target hardware has a specific mass storage controller (such as a SCSI, RAID, or
Fibre Channel adapter) for the hard disk, you can install the appropriate driver manually,
bypassing the automatic driver search-and-install procedure.
Use this option only if the automatic search-and-install procedure was unsuccessful.
Acronis Universal Restore uses three sources for drivers:
