See if this helps http://wdc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/wdc.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=3865 Also checkout WD site for their format tool. Maybe something like Acronis True Image is what you are looking for. They have a try and buy offer. EaseUS, Paragon and Macrium all have free versions of their imaging software. You don’t want to clone the drive you want to make an image of it. I use Acronis and have restored the systel partition in about 15 min.
