How to Clone a Cd

How to Clone a CD
Cloning a CD is a good
option to backup the
entire things on the CD.
When you copy files from
the CD, it does not copy
the CD settings, like its
labels and other things.
But, cloning a CD copies
all the information
including CD label, CD
type,etc and saves to
your hard disk. This
becomes useful when
you copy a bootable CD in
which the settings are
configured so the
computers can boot from
it. Here, I am going to
show a software which
you can use to clone your
CDs, DVDs with all its
settings.
Step 1: First of all,
Download Daemon Tools
and install it.
Step 2: After installing it,
click on the “Disc imaging”
icon as shown in the
below screenshot.
Step 3: Now, you will be
taken to the configuration
dialog box, where you will
have to specify from
where does the Daemon
Tools clone CD, where to
save the Clone and
whether to password
protect it or not.
From the Device
Dropdown menu, choose
your source CD drive, eg.
F:\. Set the reading speed
as slow as possible.
Because, if you set it too
fast, then your destination
image file may get
corrupted. In the
Destination image file,
choose the folder where
you want to save your
clone CD and choose the
ISO format. ISO format
can be burned with any
CD Burner software, so
better if you choose it.
After setting up the above
settings, click on Start.
The software will then
start cloning the CD.
