    system backup

    A bit of clarification: Cloning pertains to disks, not single partitions. A clone is an exact copy of an entire disk. I use cloning as part of a three-deep backup process that also includes file backups and system images. I have a front-panel accessible
    drive bay and use a duplicate of my system hard drive to do cloning (see below). Cloning is fast (I use Acronis) and provides a solution that allows for immediate use of the cloned drive in order to get back up and running in the event that the system drive
    goes to hell.

    As long as the thumb drive has enough capacity for the image or clone.
    I suggest using Macrium Reflect as it uses compression when making images.
