NTI Corporation today announced the release of the latest version of NTI Echo, a robust cloning software that delivers the ability to easily clone a PC's older storage drive to a new replacement drive. Echo's simple design, along with its advanced new features such as Filter Cloning, Partition Cloning, and Smart Cloning technologies, make Echo the right choice for any user.

"We added these new features into Echo to allow users to clone the way they want," said Bill Yao, CEO of NTI Corporation. "Being able to filter out large data files allows the user to easily clone their older drive to a faster SSD without worrying about size constraints."

Filter cloning will allow users to exclude certain files from the cloning process. Echo will make a clone of the user's drive and at the same time exclude the selected files from being copied to the newly cloned drive. Partition cloning allows the user to clone a single partition on one drive to another. Additionally, Echo's smart cloning technology will automatically resize the drive's partitions to fit onto a smaller or larger replacement drive.

Using Echo is easy, simply click the Start button and let Echo take care of the rest. Echo will start the cloning process and copy the entire original hard drive (including the Operating System, Programs, Data, Partitions, etc.) to the new replacement drive. After the cloning process is complete, just swap out the drives and reboot. Windows will boot up normally from the new drive as if nothing ever happ ened.

Echo's Key Features:

One-Click Cloning
With a single click of the mouse Echo will clone the computer's entire hard drive. A simple-to-use solution that helps users upgrade their computer's older hard drive to a new and larger hard drive.

Filter Cloning
Echo's filter cloning feature allows users to exclude certain files from the cloning process. An ideal solution for when the target drive is too small for all of the source drive's data.

Partition Cloning
Echo also allows for partition-only cloning for users that need more flexibility. Perfect for cloning just the Operating System partition on the PC's hard drive to a new smaller SSD.

Smart Cloning
Echo's smart clone technology will automatically resize (shrink or grow) the original hard drive's partitions to match the new drive's storage capacity.
