Methods for performing a backup and/or restore operation of data from a computer for operating systems providing physical storage recovery methods. To perform a restore operation, a backup storage device and a configuration storage device are communicatively coupled to a computer. Physical storage recovery data can be stored on the configuration storage device which can be used to reconfigure the storage medium of the recovery computer. One or more configuration data components are read from the configuration storage device to the computer to guide the restoration of the data of the computer. One or more data files are read from the backup storage device and saved to the computer. The data files in backup storage device, the physical storage recovery data in the configuration storage device, and the configuration data components in the configuration storage device can be saved in a previous backup operation. |
