I 1st used 3.2, and IIRC the big change 3.3 brought in was support for 1.44 floppies – geek if I’m right!

http://www.minitool-drivecopy.com/ worked for me as a drive copy.

I used it to replicate my old 32GB SSD and move the image to my new 64GB one. Booted straight away. Perfect.

Also check out EASEUS partition manager – been great for sortign out various drives and doing integrity checks.

cheers
