You will typically find the signature for Ghost in the sectors between the 
Master Boot Record and the first Boot Record.  You'll know it when you see it.  
If the disk was cloned using the proper switches to create a forensically sound 
sector-by-sector clone, you will not find a signature.

        Hello All,
        
        In an article by Symantec, it mentioned that the hard disk cloned by 
Norton
        Ghost will have a fingerprint in the free space of the hard disk.
        
        Is there any pattern that I can search that from the hard disk using 
Encase?
        
        In addition, for other software or hardware hard disk duplication 
software,
        is there any trace I can find out from the cloned hard disk?
        
        Thx.
        
        Ricci
