Ok. I asked the Super Duper guy directly (since the PGP site is a maze) and the answer is not right now. One would have to log out to clone a PGP whole disk drive. But it is on the roadmap for some future version so you will not have to do that one day.

georgestarcher I would imagine if you clone the drive from within a running OSX system with PGP mounted drive, then your clone if it works at all will be an unencrypted clone. I cannot test that theory though till I get a copy and can try it. Also I suspect you could pgp encrypt your drive intended for time machine, then run time machine and things will work normally as long as you mount the encrypted drive once you log in and stay logged in. Again I have no proof, just basing on experience with PGP under windows.

Hello, I enjoyed this cast very much as I have been looking into PGP instead of FileVault. I checked their FAQs but was hoping you might know the answer to my question.

I clone my main drive to an exact backup drive every night using super duper.

Using PHP whole disk encryption, do you know if I can still clone the drive successfully?

I know FileVault forces Super Duper to have the user log out completely which is a pain.

I was hoping PGP Whole disk would work with Super Duper and allow it to work "transparently"

Thank you!

typicalmacuser Louis, I don't own this product or have a trial copy yet, so I don't know the answers to your questions. My suspicion is that you can continue to make your copy to an external drive and you can have that external drive have encryption or not. I know for sure that Time Machine is no affected and no encrypted.

You may want to write them.
