What option should I use copying OS and programs?

Hi,


What should I use for backing up my OS and programs partition?


Seems there is a choice to back up:

1) Backing up System

2) Backing up partition
3) Backing up by cloning partition


What is the difference between 1 and 3?

  • If your programs are stored on your C: drive, System backup, which will backup the
    partitions which contains boot files and operating system, is enough. 

    System Backup is for backing up system into a compressed image file, so the file can be saved to any other storage devices. Clone partition will delete all data on the destination partition and copy the data on source partition to it.
