I would not recommend imaging a failing drive. You want to do that with a pure one that doesn't have any flaws. There is a tool in the Sysinternals pile called Disk2VHD, which does the physical to virtual thing you are referring to. -----Original Message----- From: Blind-sysadmins [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of David Mehler Sent: Thursday, March 29, 2018 3:00 PM To: blind-sysadmins <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] imaging a drive, then going physical to virtual Hello, I've got a drive that's acting up. What I want to do is image it, get a complete image, then load that in to a virtual machine. Is this doable? Thanks.
