Disk Image (#disk-image)¶
This option performs a full-disk (system volume) acquisition, imaging the computer's hard disk directly to E01 (EWF) format using ewfacquire, or to a raw DD image via ddrescue for damaged/unstable disks or when raw DD images are required. The process includes hash calculation and generation of a signed, tamper-evident PDF acquisition log with embedded QR code.

- Click Review to verify the collection settings.
- Review the Configuration: verify the data, then click Process Image to proceed, or go back to make modifications.
- Start Processing: in the Process Image view, click Process. Completion time depends on image size.
Note: if the Process Image button is disabled, a warning message will indicate the required corrections (e.g., invalid name or insufficient disk space).
