If the imaging program is NTFS aware, and it operates on a file-by-file basis, it could skip files that are not properly registered in the $MTF.

Are you's saying above the imaging may miss something? Good thing I'm cloning...

Just gotta find the best free DataRecovery & cloning program, one day, there will be one free best program.

And how are you going to know it is the best?

I have seen many times, and in many different situations, those that seek the best xxxxx, seek forever because there always may be something better that you haven't seen yet.

You don't need the best, you need one that works.
