    I've always used Macrium as well, but you forgot to mention when cloning that you may have to resize partitions manually in order to properly clone a drive! It took me about 3 years to talk my dad into going with ssd's I replaced his drive in his Gateway "Which he got for free from them over some class action", when he saw the difference it made he threw a fit to change the one in his laptop. But Macrium also allows live cloning for those with only 1 pc "it is better to use a secondary pc for cloning a drive", though like I said you may have to do a little math while partitioning the new drive since it will most likely have less storage capacity than your old mechanical drive and all that excessive free space will not fit in the last partition and the software will not resize it for you! But it is not hard to do and Macrium offers a decent user guide.

    • @Skelath
      @Skelath 4 роки тому

      And those kinds of software will also clone the MBR (Master boot record) partition from the HDD by re-partitioning the SSD it is copying the clone to rather than keeping its original GPT (GUID Partition Table) partition (GPT allows the SSD to operate at peak efficiency), so you may want to go into Disk Management and see if those drives are running on a GPT partition, if it's on MBR then just look up on google, there are plenty of guides that allow you to convert from MBR to GPT in just a few minutes while keeping all your files and the OS intact, no downloads required as you're using files pre-installed with your operating system it just requires some cmd prompt.

    I took the SSD out of my ASUS ROG and slapped it into my desktop since I wanted an SSD for my all new desktop build (new minus the drives) and luckily for me, windows decided to corrupt on my laptop's SSD, and at the time I thought the SSD died, so I replaced it with a larger SSD and replaced the hard drive since SSD's are suppose to outlive hard drives, and if your SSD does die first, your hard drive is likely not far behind. I found out however with a USB 3.0 to SATA cable with that older SSD that it was not dead, but infact windows corrupted and would only fully erase windows files through the USB 3.0 to SATA connection with the basic windows format tool. I don't know why when I tried reinstalling windows that it just would not work before declaring the SSD dead even though it wasn't, but once I realized it was working perfectly fine after removing the corrupted windows files, I set it aside as because at that time I had already ordered all the parts needed to build a new desktop, except for drives which I was going to use my older hard drives, so right now my desktop is quite fast, and would boot quickly if I turned on quick boot but I find it such a pain in the ass to get into the bios when need be when the moment comes up to press the Delete key comes and goes in a blink of an eye. Gave up trying to get into the bios on my laptop because I just can not press the button in time, no matter how fast I mash the keys lol
