Iomega hard disk drives recently got a technology boost in the form of the Iomega v.Clone, a software developed by EMC utilizing VMware technologies that enables users to create clones of their PCs onto an Iomega HDD. By using this software, a user can take everything he needs from his primary computer practically anywhere he goes, allowing him to use all the files and apps he needs in another PC as if he were working on his primary system. Iomega v.Clone copies the operating system, files, settings, and applications in the user’s primary computer and stores them in his Iomega portable HDD.

It also allows the user to edit and save files to his Iomega hard drive. When he plugs the Iomega drive into his primary computer, he simply needs to sync the data. Iomega v.Clone keeps files secure because even as the user runs his files on another computer, his data stays on the drive, leaving nothing on the secondary computer. The software likewise provides quick access to the user’s PC in case of an emergency or a system crash.

Iomega is distributed in the country by MSI-ECS.
