Acronis Backup & Recovery

Creating a volume

You might need a new volume to:

• Recover a previously saved backup copy in the “exactly as was” configuration;
• Store collections of similar files separately — for example, an MP3 collection or video files on a separate volume;
• Store backups (images) of other volumes/disks on a special volume;
• Install a new operating system (or swap file) on a new volume;
• Add new hardware to a machine.

In Acronis Disk Director Lite the tool for creating volumes is the Create volume Wizard.
