Backup and restore 63 which has a key? If it is always
sector 63 of the whole disk (not inside a partition)
then you could make a tiny custom tool for that. One
example would be a debug script. Put the script below
in a text file and use "debug < script" to run it:

acs:100
mov ax,201
mov bx,400
mov cx,3f
mov dx,80
int 13
int 20

g
rcx
200
m cs:400 l 200 cs:100
n sec63.bin
w
q

The above script copies the sector to a file.
The empty line before "g" is necessary.

debug sec63.bin < script used with this script:

m cs:100 l 200 cs:400
acs:100
mov ax,301
mov bx,400
mov cx,3f
mov dx,80
int 13
int 20

g
q

...should write the file to the sector. Note
that I only tested this in dosemu and that a
typo in the script might destroy core data
such as your partitioning scheme or bootmenu.
