[SOLVED]Good software to clone an encrypted TrueCrypt drive?

August 7th, 2016

I have a drive that is encrypted using TrueCrypt. I want to make an exact image of it, and have it stored in a separate drive for backup.
What software do you recommend can achieve this?

Answer #1
I use Acronis True Image. I assume your on windows, this will run on windows, while the drive is decrypted.
Answer #2
I recommend Macrium Reflect.
Answer #3
boot to a linux cd and run this to copy directly to another disk. Simple
dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb
This assumes that the first drive is the source and second is the destination and the second drive is the same size or larger than the first.
Or copy to an image file
dd if=/dev/sda of=/mnt/backup/encrypted.img
Be sure mount the drive you want it stored on first
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/backup
Answer #4
Ok cheers guys for the help. Hopefully my encrypted HD-disk will work!!
I will try these out, and get back with feedback if success.
