Since the USB Duplicator Writer will not let me select a hard drive to overwrite, I didn't feel the drive selection in Etcher had any advantages from that point of view. The ability to use the same app across Windows, MacOSX and Linux was appealing.
Etcher for anyone who wants to take a look at it.
And yes, I know worrying about 80MB is a bit anal but then my original hard drive was a massive 10MB. Old habits die hard. |
Thanks for the great head up!
