I agree. dd will allow you to copy an entire partition block by block. This is
good if you are replacing a hard drive and want to keep the partition layout
the same.
Which means that if you clone the backup of an 100GB disk to a new 200GB
disk, you will have 100GB and the empty space will not be accesible.
Plus, dd will clone also whitespace, which is a waste.
Minus, rsync is way faster, after the first time.
