After I pussy fussy around with so many tutorials, blogs, confused, and frustrated. I came across with this unique video, and it did really help a lot, the rest was just common sense. Scuappy made it so easy to comprehend , no discombobulated explanations, pretty straight forward.👍

I spent 3 days after work trying to clone following the guide I was given by the site I got the ssd from. Turns out this video right here is exactly what I should have been doing 3 days ago lol Gotta say a huge thanks for this vid as this has now saved me time and my weekend lol

This guy actually answers every question in the comment section. This guy is rare. Your channel will be booming with subs soon

Randomly clicked on this video looking for a guide to do this and noticed your shirt and realized that not only do i own the shirt but was also wearing it... so random. good vid though. I saw the shirt and said yeah im gonna sub haha

Good video, very clear on what you're saying. I knew how to do this but haven't done this in years. Just needed confirmation for confidence. Thanks :)

Thanks Scuappy!! This video was the missing piece! Just successfully cloned a new 1TB NVME drive to replace the old 128GB NVME drive that was bursting at the seems, worked perfectly!!

This was very helpful when I cloned my old SSD to a larger one. The only additional thing I had to do was initialize the new SSD before cloning and give it a drive letter after cloning to be able to boot from it.

such a helpfull video!!!! thanks i really needed this since ive never cloned any oftware from one drive to another but thanks😁 works may 2021!!!!

Thanks for the video , very helpful thanks , I notice you take the time to reply to all the comments , not like some you tubers who can't be bothered, Take care

Thank you soo!!! Much Man!!! You have save me time and you saved me from my problems Thanks again !!!

thank you so much, this helps a lot

Very Helpful. If you are running out of room in your C drive, you need to have 3.5GB free to install Acronis, and get the ball rolling. Otherwise, the swap went swimmingly. Thanks!

Thank you!

Hey crang, good video, it is helpful, thanks there for. Your name is Crang?

I need to purchase a 2 TB SSD to have on hand for the next HDD crash. Would you go with Crucial MX500 or Western Digital Blue? I need to decide between these two.

Thanks for the excellent video. Can you answer a few quick questions? I will be doing the cloning with Acronis 2021 as well. I am replacing my 120 gig SSD with w 2T SSD. 1. Do I have to have to format the new drive first before I do the cloning or will Acronis format it as part of the clone process? 2. Do I have to make any changes to the BIOS? Thanks ahead of time. I subscribed.

Craig, one major item not mentioned was where did you hook up the new drive to make the clone? I am about to do the same (500GB m.2 to 1TB m.2), but I only have one m.2 slot in my PC. Also, I have seen a couple of videos where they have Acronis, but they make a bootable drive on a USB drive, and then boot to that USB by changing the boot options in BIOS. Is one method better than the other? And finally, if I use the automatic option, won't the new drive show up as 1TB? If not, how would I re-size the partitions? Thanks for the video.

Good work my friend...now if I can only remember where I turn this thing on. Oh yes, there it is...

1 thing i didn't understand how to make those 2 little recovery partitions in the new(destinatio)hdd or ssd

That wife will become my computer, you almost said it !!!! great video just installed 2TB SN580's dives with the use of this video. But bro, too many dabs before, eh? lol XD Thank you !

I have Acronis 2021. Can I use this Clone Disk to clone a new PC? How do they connect/communicate with one another to make the transfer?

i have a few questions 1. is there a options to let me choose to copy only os to new ssd and keep others personal files and apps in my old hdd? If there have this option is that available in free version of Acronis True Image? 2. Once i migrate the os is,that ok to keep the os in the old hdd and just leave it as a storage without format it?

my destination hard drive have a windows 7 installed and other programmes. do I need to format this hard drive befor cloning.

Is the target drive inside your computer? Can you perform the same task if the NVMe is inside an enclosure connected to the computer via USB 3.0 or USB C.

Once you cloned your source drive, can you still use that source on your computer while having the cloned drive in it? For example I have an SSD but i’m cloning it so I can put the data on my 2TB hard drive.

Trying to download a tonics image but it says not enough memory - advice pl

I’ve moved three of my family members from a regular HD to an SSD and each time used the free miniTool partition to mirror the drive product and it took about 5-10 minutes for a 500GB. I’m now trying a clone using Acronis and it’s telling me it will take 19h for a 250GB drive? Am I missing something? Is there a difference in cloning vs mirroring?

Wow this is nice video❤️ but i have question, if i want to clone my SSD storage from 512gb to 1tb, should i buy a enclosure m.2 nvme ?? Or maybe i just only plug and cloning ?

Hey, I have a question: I have a 128GB ssd in which OS is running and I want to upgrade to 500GB SSD but I have a laptop with only one slot of SSD , can I make a copy of my 128GB into any external HDD? and then clone the data from HDD to new SSD ? with Acronis? please do let me know thank you

I have an HP Omen and only have one m.2 nvme slot. How do I go from a OEM 256GB to a WD Black 1TB when I only have one slot? Do I need an external enclosure or can I use the backup and recovery process in Acronis?

2 Quick questions: 1/ If I am cloning a 1 TB HDD to a 500 GB SDD do I choose proportional or manual? 2/ In other videos they stated that the new drive should be internal and the old drive external, otherwise the new drive will not be bootable. Can you clarify for me? Thank-you

Question. I have a Dell 3593 Inspiron laptop. I installed a 500GB Sabrent NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD. I installed the Acronis True Image app. Why can’t I clone my hard drive to the new SSD and power down. Then boot up in bios mode and change which drive is primary i.e. the new SSD. Then restart and it should boot from the SSD. I want to keep the 1T drive installed and use it for data after I delete everything on it. Will that work?

I did this but when I booted it up with the new ssd my laptop automatically "repaired" my new drive and now its corrupted. Was I meant to do some BIOS setting changes or something before booting it? I'm cloning from my old Hdd to my new ssd

Hello, thank you for the thoughtful video! I was able to follow it & clone a new bigger hard drive. I am more of a software person by nature so I am really grateful for this video! Would you be willing to try & assist me with an issue I’m running into? I cloned my main C drive with Windows, maming it bootable, switched out the SSD’s after, then played some games, but notice that my Windows now completely locks up after sitting idle for a little bit. I did run sfc /scannow in CMD, which found some corrupted Windows files & repaired, Windows update says I’m up to date, & Acronis is showing no issues with the new SSD. I went from 512 GB Western Digital Blue to 2TB Western Digital Black SN850x, & I’m running Windows 11. There were thermal pads behind the old SSD that I maintained in place behind the new. My rig is an MSI Raider 75. I unseated & reseated my 32gigs of ram back into place. Thank you for any thoughts you can provide!

so, how do I do this on my MacPro?

Did you use the Acronis WD free edition or the paid edition ?

Hi I have a hdd which I used to run windows and an external ssd for my apps, data, games, etc. I bought an nvme and downloaded windows 10 onto it. So if possible I would like my computer to have all the programas and settings it used to but use the new nvme so what should I do? When I boot up the nvme while the external ssd for storage is attached it obviously doesn't have the same layout so is my request possible?

Bro, this part 3:09, will the partitions will be really deleted? After the cloning procedure is complete, will both hdd( which is the source) and ssd (which i am about to clone all the data from the hdd) be the same? Will it be the same from square 1?

How can I clone without removing the source drive? I have both nvme’s plugged in and want to migrate the os to the newer one and keep using the older one as a blank drive.

When target of the cloning is larger than the source, Acronis creates Unallocated partition which is not adjacent main user partition. So it is necessary to use Acronis disk director to merge these 2 partitions. Let’s provide step by step instructions for that

Thanks for the video bro, I used this abt 10yrs ago, but if I may ask how do I get the acronic software?

Hey dude love the video but I have one question. I added an ssd to my laptop and cloned my hard drive to my ssd but I want to keep my hard drive in my system for unimportant documents and some other stuff but Acronis doesn’t have an option for that and now I don’t know what to do because I want to remove the hard drive

My problem is when I'm starting to clone the drive it will ask to be reboot or the cloning won't start. How do I fix this issue? Pls help 😣

can you clone to an m.2 that you have in an enclosure and connected through usb ?

Quick question after the clone do we need to swap the new nvme to the old nvme slot?

Hey, your video was very informative. Still, I'm having bit of a problem while trying to add an SSD to my laptop. I'm trying to clone my laptop's 1 TB HDD (only 380 GB used space) to a new Crucial 500GB P1 NVMe M.2 SSD, but the Acronis software keeps on showing error message saying "you need additional 254 GB of free disk space available on the target hard drive to complete the operation with the current filter. Please exclude more files or folders and then try again." even though the total used space on my original HDD is less than 400 GB. I only want to clone the OS drive, so I have already excluded everything other than C: drive (120 GB) but it still shows that i need additional 109.4 GB of Disk space!!! I'm unable to see any logic here.Kindly make a video regarding such problem or point me towards a solution.Thanks again

hi dear. I want to recover my M2 hard disk, however when we go throughout the recovery steps it can not detect the M2 hard disk. just wander weather acronis support recovering M2 hard disks! if yes which version. any advices and comments will be much appreciated

was it a bootable/system disk you cloned?

I did it in the automatic mode because I had no partitions on the SSD and was cloning to M.2, but afterwards it says it could not boot to the M.2 drive so I'm stuck. I have also left my other drives in there but I did unplug the one I cloned from. My M.2 drive is a Samsung 980 NVMe M.2 by the way.

Do we need to reinstall the apps and games from old drive after migrating?

I'm doing this right now from a sata ssd to an M.2 and when it starts cloning it keeps saying restart required. When I restart its as if nothing happened. Its a huge cycle of start/restart... Any ideas?

After I click “proceed” it gets stuck at estimated time, it doesn’t load at all

So if I get this correctly I can just use a USB enclosure to connect the bigger NVMe drive, clone it and then swap them out? Seems too easy...

hey I cloned the drive using Acronis OEM, from a Crucial sata SSD 500 gb to a kingston Nvme 1 tb. I removed the sata drive and my other storage drive but it said boot sector cannot be found? Whats wrong? Acronis completed successfully

I've just tried to clone my C drive using Acronis, but the C drive is greyed out so I can't select it as source. Suggestions please?

Do I need to worry about bad sectors on a source HDD when cloning to an SSD? I noticed you ignored bad sectors on your source drive.

All apps and os from my old hdd will be copied from my ssd? Will it boot without errors?

Can i still use the old ssd that I cloned?

11th gen notebook os clone & mygrated, video please ?

can u use the free trial version for cloning?

I am stuck , there is no proportional option

How do I get this to work after the clone was successful

I realized there was a dog in the background and totally lost focus

This tutorial has lost my c drive. Not only did it not work for me but I now can't get into the original c drive

Why don’t just recovery ? Why millions process

as I said before all computer GURUS always make the mistake that they think and assume that all viewers and audience are versed in technology. Once the cloning took place, viewers do need to see how to get into BIOS and select Primary disc and Windows Boot Manager for this cloning process to be completed successfully. I do not know if these gurus are lazy or cocky, they all seem to show the easy stuff never go the extra mile, for that reason, I seldom or never subscribe to them let alone play with their little bell.
