Recovering the disk signature may be desirable due to the following reasons: 
o
 
Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 creates scheduled tasks using the signature of the source hard 
disk. If you recover the same disk signature, you don't need to re-create or edit the tasks 
created previously. 
o
 
Some installed applications use disk signature for licensing and other purposes 
o
 
Enables to keep all the Windows Restore Points on the recovered disk. 
o
 
to recover VSS snapshots used by Windows Vista's "Previous Versions" feature
