Hey HN! I'm the CTO at Atola Technology, and we have launched MultiDrive: a free disk backup/clone/wipe tool that does things differently. After 17 years of work with drives, I got tired of seeing simple disk operations locked behind paywalls. Macrium killed their free version, EaseUS hides cloning in paid tiers, and so on and so forth. Another reason is that all the existing solutions are overly complicated. It must be simple enough for my mum to start erasing a USB stick or making a full drive backup. All in all, we thought the community deserved better. What makes MultiDrive different: - Dead simple launch of a full drive backup, clone, erase or restore - 100% free. No ads, "upgrade to pro" popups - Standard formats. Backups use ZIP or RAW, no proprietary .afi/.tib nonsense - Handles bad sectors, loose cables, can pause/resume any operation - Parallel drive tasks - CLI app as an addition for workflow automation Would love your feedback! What problems with disk operations have you had that current tools couldn't solve? We're building our roadmap based on real pain points. |
