Disk Utility creates the disk image.
TIP
Can I create a disk image from a folder instead of an entire hard drive?
Yes. This is a faster method if you want to back up or share a particular folder instead of
the entire drive. It also creates a much smaller disk image, depending on the original size
of the folder. To create a disk image from a folder, follow steps
