Disk2vhd 1.63

O. James Samson - October 18, 2010

Disk2vhd 1.62 helps to create Virtual Hard Disk-Microsoft’s Virtual Machine disk format (VHD) versions of physical disks for use in Microsoft Virtual PC or Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machines (VMS). Users can also use this program to create the VHDs on local volumes; including the ones being converted. It uses the Windows Volume Snapshot capability, which was introduced in Windows XP to create consistent point-in-time snapshots of the volumes any use wants to add in a conversion.

Disk2vhd 1.63 runs on Windows XP, SP2 and higher, and runs on Windows server 2003 or higher. One of the great features of this program is that can create one VHD for each disk on which selected volumes reside. It also preserves the partitioning of information of the disk, but copies the data contents for volumes on the disk that are selected; enabling you to capture just system volumes and exclude data volumes.

Disk2vhd also includes command-line options that enable a user to script creation of VHDs. Simply specify the volumes of your choice in a snapshot by drive letter or use the “*” to add all  volumes.

Disk2vhd 1.63 is a freeware program and requires no activation charges to download or run it on your system.
