Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources.

  The review notes: "Partclone is a free and open source command-line software implemented in C and designed from the offset as an alternative to the Partition Image (also known as partimage) program, but for GNU/Linux systems."
2. Velasco, Rubén (2017-10-17). "Partclone, una alternativa a Acronis True Image para clonar discos duros" [Partclone, an alternative to Acronis True Image for cloning hard drives]. Redes Zone (in Spanish). Archived from the original on 2021-07-30. Retrieved 2021-07-30.
  Redes Zone has editorial oversight. From Google Translate: "Partclone, a simple and complete tool to clone partitions Although this tool has been created to work in a simple way, it actually also has a large number of advanced functions, such as pipe, stdin and stdout, which help us to create our own scripts. Partclone has also been designed to allow us to recover from damaged disks. Thanks to various libraries and functions such as "rescue" or "ddrescue", this tool allows us to dump, block by block, all the data from a damaged hard disk in order to try to recover the data from it."
There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Partclone to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".
