Cloning an entire disk as opposed to a volume?

[peychaud]

Thanks Dave. Another quick question while I've got you.

Last night, I tried to smart update a volume that holds my iTunes folder and some other general files. It took a long time and I eventually I got an error message telling me that the backup had failed. I went to the drive and there was a folder labeled damaged files with alias links to a ton of folders. I used Disk Utility to erase the volume and tried backing it up again. This time it worked fine.

Should I be worried about the damaged files?

The only thing I can think of that might have caused it is I recently got Disk Warrior and I may have run Disk Warrior on the backup before smart updating it. Could that potentially cause problems with smart updating? Any other issues with Disk Warrior?

Thanks again for the great customer service.
