Hi all,

Maybe not MacOS related, but I'm looking how to clone an entire device drive drive, regardless filesystems on it, I need to "simply"
How's about CarbonCopyCloner?
<http://www.bombich.com/software/ccc.html>

First CCC won't even make a perfect clone of a Tiger HFS+ filesystem.

Second, it only works on filesystems that OS X understands, so if the device had, say the ZFS filesystem on it then it wouldn't be able to copy it.

Lastly the poster wants to clone a device, not just filesystems on the device, so you'd be missing quite a bit if you only copied the filesystems on the device.
