I usually use an external D: which is portable, with the C: being a pure Windows OS.

If you really need mobility with Windows, consider Windows-to-Go under Windows Enterprise. Moving clones has much bigger challenges. A simpler solution is to use Windows Backup/Restore or File History to backup/restore the same hardware. Site licenses for use with Macrium Site Manager available in blocks of 10 Macrium Agent Licenses. Macrium Reflect Workstation is a reliable recovery solution for everything from individual files to entire Windows Operating Systems. Time machine + macrium image + gptdisk would be too much to keep track of. Designed for endpoint backup of business-critical PCs, laptops and workstations in a commercial environment.

Id rather keep this as simple as possible. You also have to consider licensing implications of Windows, if the underlying hardware is different. That is the only case I see where partitions would change, and even then, that's why I'll only backup the (C: ) right? So I can move it to wherever I want, as long as I have installed windows through bootcamp so the other tiny partitions are in the right place.Ī clone should be restored to the same sized partition on the same model. Cloning Windows across Mac models has many issues.

Applications will need to be re-instatlled on the new Mac. If you install Windows on the new Mac, are you just planning to restore files? It is better to copy files rather than restore the clone. You should not restore a Windows image from one Mac model to a different model, due to BC driver differences. If I replace my macbook for instance, would I be able to restore from my current macrium windows (C: ) image after having reinstalled windows in the new mac via bootcamp?
