Many thanks in advance for your impulse
The honest answer would be NO. Drive Cloner Rx is very similar to Acronis, Ghost and the likes of other drive imaging applications. Drive Cloner has not better "integration' than any other imaging app, as it takes a bare metal image of your system - however, it can not see the RollBack Rx snapshots or the Rollback Rx application.

Just like Ghost and Acronis; Drive cloner Rx can only copy what it can see... Because the RollBack Rx application and its snapshots are written directly onto the drive sectors as sector maps. since the imaging apps can not see these parts - they can not be imaged.

Bottom line - Drive Cloner Rx is a drive imaging and bare metal backup application similar to others available on the market. None of these products have any special integration with RollBack Rx.
