Are only partition content backupped or structure as well? Auto-recreating if neces?

[pstein]

Assume I perform (from WinPE) a System Backup (of some) of my partitions.

Does Hasleo backup only the inner content of these partitions or the partition structure as well?

In other words:

If I replace the current SSD on my mainboard with a new unformatted (bigger) one and perform a restore:
Does Hasleo recognize the missing partitions and automatically re-create them?

Including same GPT/MBR mode?
including same NTFS/FAT32 mode?
Including same partition sizes and order?

Or is it more stupid and need an suitable pre-formatted, initialized partition structure on the target volume/disk?

Hasleo backs up and automatically recreates the complete partition structure. When you perform a system restore to a brand new blank hard drive, the software will automatically recognize and rebuild all partitions based on the backup metadata, there is no need to pre-format the target drive. You simply need to select the backup image and the target disk during the recovery process.

I have to be a bit careful here since I've never done this with Hasleo.
I'm pointing out your mention of a new "bigger" drive. My understanding is that the Restore will setup the partitions according to the backup metadata but this will give you the original size partitions and won't take advantage of the larger space available. This usually leaves unallocated space after the restore. It is, I think, necessary to go to Advanced mode and resize the partitions when doing the restore.
I'm ready to be corrected if this is not accurate.
