Persistent backups for bare metal recovery #15

Closed bassu closed 11 years ago

bassu commented 11 years ago

I have a feature request.

Since shadow copies listed by vssadmin are accessible as block devices at .\HardiskVolumeShadowCopy# (w32 device name space) so it'll be really cool to have some something like dd loosely integrated into shadowspan for complete volume backups.

There are few variants of dd.exe out there.

:+1: :)
