Clone X overview

Clone X is specially designed to create a copy of your system, to duplicate it on other disks or computers, and to repair and reinstall the system in case of problems (damaged system, errors during installation, etc.)

With OS X, the system is now a very complex construction. It is no longer confined within the System 9 System folder, but is distributed all around multiple folders, most of them being inaccessible (invisible, protected or permission denied). Moreover, any copy or installation must preserve permissions and ownership of each file.

Clone your System: Clone X provides powerful features to analyze your system (OS X and OS 9), to execute a full copy (a clone) of your System, even if the system was installed and updated many times with the updaters provided by Apple. The clone is saved on an external drive, CD-R as well as a part of your internal disk. The clone is compressed to save disk space, and you can create as many clones as you need.

Repair your System: Starting from this clone, Clone X will be able at any time to repair your system if damaged, or if some data was lost, or an installation has corrupted your system. You'll have your system back to its original state. Repair operation is undoable!

Recreate identical systems on other disks: With the copy of your original system realized by Clone X, you can install a similar system on other disks or other computers, preserving your own configuration and settings.

Total rubbish. Has taken hours and hours, keeps dropping out and has to be restarted. Not finished yet 3 days later

Purchasing this software was certainly a mistake on my part. The cloning process takes hours and hours and that's on an iMac i7 running at 3.4 GHz with 16 GB of RAM. If you are using SuperDuper, then you are getting the most bang for your buck. In my humble opinion, Clone X is simply awful. Also, I read the forums and the company seems highly unlikely to grant any refunds.

Does it handle Apple's bloody fusion drives? I have had no end of problems with Apple's fusion drive BS and cloning. -And don't even get me started on building an image from a fusion drive. I'd rather setup an xbox live account.

SuperDuper worksgreat with all versions of Mac OS including Mountain Lion 10.8.2. It has never failed me. I ama registered user but the last I looked at it, It is free if you don't need the extra stuff.

Works perfect. But if you want the same for free, take a look at Carbon Copy Cloner.

like the way the developer took the time to add a "BOOTCAMP NOT SUPPORTED MESSAGE" instead of implementing a way to actually backup or clone a bootcamp partition!!! hahaha thank GOD i still have my winclone working. winclone is still the ONLY backup utility that actually clones and restores any bootcamp partition. if the developer invested time into making a cloning utility that just clones and restores bootcamp partitions like winlclone,he would make a lot of money since winclone is discontinued and am not sure how much longer we can patch it to keep it working with mac system updates.

Well.... their version of "minimal" system and my version are significantly different. The process begins by copying the -entire- /Library folder ( and not just the "minimal" or Apple-only files.) My own /Library folder is 128 GB... which is hardly "minimal" in my book.

Not a single thing about this massively overpriced junk that cannot be done better with FREE or donateware apps. Stay away.

$49 seems a bit pricey compared to Carbon Copy Cloner which is DonateWare. Maybe Clone X 3.1.1. has some extra special features which CCC does not have... but $49? Yikes :)

$49 for this? Sorry, I haven't tried it yet. But it would be hard pressed to be superior to applications such as CCC. You've really got to be kidding.

The author of Clone X (any version) must hold the record for bogus plaudits (praise) planted in this review list! Thankfully, I lost only two CD-Rs in my attempts to get it to function. Only ONE of the utilities I added (within the Clone X app) actually launched! Highly irritating to deal with the French language interface when the CD booted! No Dock; No access to the Desktop; generally hopeless. BootCD 0.6.4 actually works! Just create the Bootable CD in Panther (OS X 10.3.x): the CD works perfectly in Panther AND Tiger: I've got DiskWarrior 3.0.3; Drive Genius 1.1; Data Rescue II 1.1.1 and Disk Utility 10.4 all working happily from my bootable CD! AND I have a Dock; Desktop; access to mounted drives can run other apps and more from the bootable CD! Ignore the get-rich-quick Frenchman and his tacky software.

Considering the free tools that are out there (Carbon Copy Cloner and BootCD) the author(s) are asking an exorbitant price for their software. They must be hoping that there is a sucker born every minute.

DO NOT USE THIS PROGRAM. in wost cases It destroys all other data on your backup disk. (Even if the files/folders are locked) Futhermore when you back up your disk it's okey, but when you want to to restore back lots of errors occour. Mr. Developer. You have to do much better than this

I have been using the Tri-Edre's Clone X product since the beginning. It has always worked well. The first version was a little slow in performance but version 2.X has been great. Version 2.X does support external FW burners as I use a plextor and have had no trouble at all. Excellent product and with Tri-edre's Backup product, you have an team of great products to ensure your data and system are safe and sound.

Well, the "make a bootable CD" feature in 2.0.0 has so far only succeeded in making coasters. The Apple logo appears, and the Darwin spinner runs a while, but invariably the "no" circle/slash symbol appears. Whatever it is they are doing, it doesn't appear to be very stable. Also, the disk image format they are using is not supported by Toast 5 or DiscBlaze. Not too smart, guys. BADLY needs external FW burner support. Anyway, it seems to back up data fine, but not moreso than Bombich's CarbonCopyCloner, and that's "free." Had really high hopes for this, but they've not worked out their bugs for bootable CD creation (yet?)
