Cloning of SSDS for SSD

I just bought a HP Zbook 1517 that works great on Windows 7. It has a 256 Gb Solid State Drive (SSD). After having used it for a few days and put away there files and folders I commonly use, I wanted to have a back up. So I bought a new SSD 256 GB and using another cloned computer the original SSD for the new SSD using Macrium software. As far as I could tell, an exact clone were made. However although the original SSD always starts the Zbook, I can't boot from the clone SSD. According to me, the bios must change, but I'm not totally sure what I should do. Help, please.

Hello

I think that you need to fix the MBR. It can be done by a Windows 7 install disc or DOS environment with orders bootrec /fixmbr bootrec /fixboot and then.

Unetbootin is a good utility to do too much.

  • Cloning windows 7 for SSD (different controller)

    Basically I change hard drive, so I would use the cloning utility (if all goes well he leaves me the image of the system partition).

    But the SSD is attached to another controller, I added later.

    For Win7 has no drivers to start on it (other than those that are set up to display the controller).

    So I wonder how to integrate the drivers if needed, or what I would do in advance to avoid problems.

    thx a lot

    When you clone, it creates an exact replica of the layout of the partition. The minimum I recommend, if you plan to use cloning is to create a system repair disc:

    Step 1:

    See the instructions below how to do this using Easeus do save:

    http://www.TODO-backup.com/backup-resource/data-transfer/move-Windows8.1-from-HDD-to-SSD.htm

    You will probably need an external hard drive with enough space for the installation of backup hard disk.

    Hi all

    It will be a problem when it comes to cloning the drive?

    No, it shouldn't be a problem. It may be necessary first turn on FileVault and encrypt the SSD. But if there is no problem just turn off FileVault on the HARD drive.

  • Should I defragment HARD drive front of cloning of SSD?

    Hello everyone.

    I just bought a Pro Series Q SSD 256 GB 2.5.

    Now I want to clone my old HDD together at a new SSD using NTI Echo 3 to Toshiba.

    Should I defragment my HARD old disc before the cloning process (in this case, I wonder just about the best SSD performance and life expectancy, I dislike about the time of cloning).

    Disk defragmentation HARD impact positively on SSD performance in this scenario, or it will be irrelevant?
    I'd appreciate advice.

    Kind regards

    In my opinion, it is not necessary, but of course, it also will not affect the performance of the SSD...

  • Windows10 car does not start after cloning of SSD (mid-2010)

    Hi all.

    In my mid-2010 mac pro, I have a windows disc 10 (upgraded to 8.1 windows) in the Bay 3. I want to update to SSDS. So, I bought one, I cloned the drive with winclone app pro (v.5.4) but the new drive is not bootable. When I choose to boot from it, it stops at a white (command line - like) screen BACK with a flashing dash.

    Any suggestions?

    The problem was to limitations of El Capitan. The operating system does not other applications to write to the MBR (...) od disks. If the new disk is unable to be started.

    I installed Yosemity in another disc and clone the HDD to the ssd from there.

    There was another solution to disable "csrutil" of Terminal recovery, but another problem I had, doesn't have me let go to recovery mode (frequent readers of fusion).

  • Cloned new HDD for Pavilion 1210.uk does not start

    I am new to the forum so Hi everyone.

    I just installed a new HDD (SATA) to my office. BIOS identiified unit correctly and I cloned using HDClone software. He succeeded with 0 read and write errors. All files are accessed through drive letter access. So far so good, I thought. I then tried to boot from the disc again by changing the BIOS boot order. Hoewver, when the trunk begins with the new PC HARD drive crashes with a white/black screen with the cursor blinking in the upper left corner. It is the logo of Microsoft and o/s linen starts (XP).

    Some additional information:

    * Old HARD drive still boots without problem with or without the new drive.

    * I changed the transfer rate of 3.0 GB to 1.5 GB being the SATA 2 drive. That made no difference, then changed back.

    I don't know what is wrong, someone has also experienced this or knows what is the problem?

    Thanks for reading.

    The cloned system was not built with PATA and SATA drivers.  This could be the problem. You still get the blinking cursor?  You can send an email to technical support HDClone and ask of PATA, SATA problem of cloning.

  • New hard drive and cloning Windows asking for the password and end the session

    Hi all

    Need help please. I just bought a Cavior of WD 1 TB hard drive. I have used Norton Ghost to clone my old hard drive again. Then I removed the old hard drive and another to start the system. Currently, Windows XP was asked to enter the password (in my old drive hard, there is no password entry required). When I press ENTER, the windows log.

    Also, I tried to log in after you have set a password using ERD Commander (locksmith). I get the same result, that is to say Windows log off after entering the password.

    I am at a loss on how to proceed from here. I do not have the CD Windows XP that I bought this computer a few years and did not remember receiving the Windows XP CD. I don't have the product key which is glued on the computer case.

    Help, please. I have to activate Windows again?

    Ghost allows you to create a backup "Image", and then restore the image to the new disk.

  • How to level a T61 HDD for one SSD without reinstall?

    Hi all. I bought this ThinkPad, I write with back in 2008 (a T61 6465-CTO with Vista and Intel integrated graphics) and he has been working a lot to me since then. I had no problems with it and his equipment is still able to manage what I have to do. However, I wanted to move her to an SSD HARD drive is faster and snappier. I know that I have would be limited at SATA1 speeds with this camera if I don't want to change the BIOS (which I did not), but I think that even this would be a great improvement on the existing HARD drive.

    To that end, I recently bought an SSD that their prices have dropped slightly (bought a new 120 GB SSD Samsung 840 for less than $100). I said SSD sitting next to me now but I did nothing yet because I want to make sure that I have the right to clone the old disk and swap in the new process. From what I understand instructions, I should:

    1 turn on the computer, install the Samsung Data Migration Software
    2. connect the SSD to a USB port via a USB-SATA Adapter
    3 clone the main for the SSD connected HARD drive using the software of data Migration
    4. turn the computer off, physically remove the old HDD and SSD in its place
    5 turn on the computer and everything should be fact/same as before (with the exception that the computer has a new storage drive)

    Is this correct?

    The HARD drive is encrypted so I removed the password for user/master I have to enter when it starts up, but what I have to do the same for the BIOS password that I am invited to when you turn on the computer? What the hidden; restore partition would clone too much or it would be lost. The HARD drive is in my opinion a 160 GB model, while the SSD is 120 GB but I have read that this difference in capacity should not be a problem since I'm using less of the new disc capacity (I have about 100 GB of free space on the HARD disk)?

    Sorry for all the questions. I have very little experience when it comes to changes in the software/hardware and I really would like to avoid wasting it so I would appreciate any help from people who have knowledge fact how to do this successfully. Thank you.

    The installation that you want to be cloning is optimized for spinning a player - not SSD - and you would have to align in a first time, disable the services later and again, you would not get the performance of a "clean" installation

    You can use any disk Vista installation as long as it matches the version (Home, Pro, full) on your COA - the worst that can happen is that you would have to call MS and activate by phone.

    I had the question why you want to the outdated drivers and other bloat Lenovo recovery partition on expensive SSD space as well, but it's your call. If you provision the reader - and I think you should - you won't initially that much space...

    TRIM running manually is certainly a possibility, but not one that I'm particularly sharp, especially on a small disc of TLC as the Samsung you have. You will need to be on it for not to have slow down for analysis.

    Good luck.

    Quick response would be much appreciated.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    Yes, you can clone your current HARD drive to your new SSD, install new SSD on your computer and run it from there. Please note:

    (un) Normally smaller SSD (2.5 "vs 3.5") so you need a kit of mounting for her, including the following:

    http://www.eBay.com/Sch/i.html?_sacat=0 & _nkw=2.5%22+to+3.5%22+Mounting+adapter+bracket+SSD & _sac = 1

    (b) when cloning, you may need to select only the OS drive, otherwise it does not unless you have the (larger) SSD. There are many free around software

    http://www.TechRepublic.com/blog/five-apps/five-free-and-reliable-cloning-tools/

    and you can also get a kit of cloning of seller for around $10-$15.

  • HP 700-330qe: how to disable or replace the SSD on HP 700-330qe

    Help for my HP 5 months! It kills Me!

    I bought a HP 700-330qe in 2014 from Amazon and just started getting SMART of Windows hard disk errors whenever my computer restarts, telling me that the hard drive failure is imminent. He also tells me to shut down the computer immediately, save it, contact the manufacturer, etc. Never seen it in any PC I owned before. Naturally, I freaked out and did some internet research, discover that it is relatively easy to clone and replace a hard drive. I ordered a new hard drive Western Digital 3 TB of Amazon, a docking station for disc brand cable hard of Amazonia and downloaded the Macrium Reflect free disk management software.

    Items from Amazon arrived in a few days and I got to work making a clone of my one and only hard drive. Clone was made with little problem. Shut down the computer, it opens and replaced the old hard disk with a new one. Start the computer to the top and got the same message on imminent hard drive failure! So I paid more attention to it this time and looked up the model number in the warning message, which was: ScanDisk SDSA6DM - 016 G-1006. I Googled that and found it was the disk solid state drive (SSD) used as a cache to speed up certain operations. Arrgh.

    I stuck my old hard drive in the hard drive docking station and was ready to be cloned partition SSD and all partitions on the hard drive to the hard drive and the removal or at least unplug the SSD drive to get rid of this problem. The software told me that the SSD is shaped as MPR (or something like that) while the main hard drive is formatted as GPT, which are different types of hard drive, formatting, so you cannot copy these different types of partitions on a hard drive.

    So here's my options as I see them:

    (1) I have to either disable the SSD, but I don't know how and I don't know if the computer will always start the same. Windows is partially installed on SSD? I do not know.

    (2) to clone and replace the DSS about the same way I did with the main hard drive. I can get the SSD according to Amazon for $49: Kingston Digital 60 GB SSDNow V300 SATA 3 2.5 (height of 7mm) with adapter Solid State Drive SV300S37A / 60G.

    For the option #2 above, the only problem is that I have no idea where the OEM SSD of ScanDisk is currently installed in my computer! It is in the hard drive cage? I don't see anything else installed there. I thought it was in the cage directly above the hard drive cage, but I think that what I was looking at was the front memory card reader/USB ports. I don't have on CD Player installed and I can see where it is. Help!

    PS: I also downloaded EaseUS Partition Master 10.2 and it allows to analyze the SSD drive. While it was scanning it found 9 bad blocks (on tens of thousands of blocks), but when he finished the analysis it says there is a lot of blocks. For this to happen on an SSD, which is supposed to be more reliable than hard disks of small, to make this so much more aggravating situation. At least, I upgraded my hard drive 2 TB to 3 TB and know now that I can do. Sigh.

    Yes, I had a frusrtrating very experience with HP customer support, even after it was raised to a case manager based in the United States, who called me home. She found no part at all in its computer system and wanted to send me in my whole PC to a service center customer (it was still under warranty) which would take at least 3 weeks. I said no and went forward and the DSS out of my computer. I stopped receiveing the error messages and did not notice a slow down in performance, but went ahead and bought and installed this one, just in case it actually provides an advantage: My Digital 32 GB SSD Bullet Proof (on Amazon for $25).

    As a note to end funny to this drama, about 6 months after my discussion with HP support I describe above, I have randomly mailed an envelope of HP with the exact 16 GB SSD, they said that they didn't in their system. It also included an envelope to return my faulty SSD and a stern note saying if they do not receive the defective item within 3 days my credit card (that I never gave them) would be charged. I threw a long time ago the defective item and just throw it back into a drawer... or maybe that I returned it in the envelope for return of defective product? I don't remember really.

    In any case, it was a horrible customer service experience, and since then I have another HP Envy (my PC 3 year to my son) have a hard drive and video card fail at the same time. I replaced the two after a few problems, but no matter what I do, it can get its setup dual monitor want to work more. I tried several video cards and nothing.

    All of these factors combined caused me write off HP for the future PC purchases. The guys in my company IT say it's the reason why we only buy Dell computers at work (we have hundreds of maintain). They do not use strange pieces like these small SSD cache records, and their parts are standard and easy to replace because of the case. I'll either get a Dell or ASUS as my next PC.

  • Dv6t 7300 SSD upgrade

    Hello

    I have a HP DV6t 7300, provided with a 750 GB HARD drive and a recovery an32GB mSATA SSD. That's what I did:

    1: I backed up my hard drive using Acronis.

    2: I bought a 1 TB 2.5 in. Samsung 840 evo

    3: I cloned my 750hdd for the Samsung ssd using an external cable with acronis

    4: I removed the hard drive and replaced with the ssd, everything works well, has noticed the bump in speed.

    5: I used the Recovery Manager HP to withdraw the recovery disc.

    6: I have assigned a new drive letter for the drive to 32 GB mSATA and tested by copy/paste. Works very well

    7: I downloaded the latest driver Intel Intel Web site RST (for some reason I couldn't do support HP)

    page).

    8: I have installed Samsung magician software and evaluated the Samsung ssd, works as advertised, bar a message

    on ahci does not. I did some research and found that his is a problem with the software of magician and Intel RST

    care of this.  So I uninstalled Samsung magician.

    Now for the questions:

    a: is that installation ok?

    b: my HP only has raid, are treated my 2 drives (Samsung ssd and disc mSATA ssd) as two drives separated or just a

    drive with 2 partitions?

    c: I was better physically eliminating the mSATA ssd? (I'd like to change to a greater capacity, a

    If possible, I still boot from the Samsung ssd)

    d: Will Raid works with an ssd?

    e: Control Panel of my Intel RST has no acceleration button, why is this?

    f: can I re install software Samsung magician? There are many relevant utilities for the ssd.

    g: am I losing this configuration performance benefits, especially since I read that I can not use Samsung 'speed '.

    double feature with RAID configuration.

    Thanks a lot for your patience and your support

    You did good. I would not mess with it. There is no option of acceleration for a SSD may not be the target for acceleration, may not be the vehicle for acceleration; That is to say you can not accelerate an SSD with an another SSD. Don't mess with RAID level BIOS Setup program. The reason the magician Samsung says there is no ahci is that the BIOS is set to RAID, but it is ahci compatible RAID and works well with a single hard drive too long that you have the correct Intel storage driver, you do. You work as two drives separated right now and you want to keep it this way. The WSSD will purely exercise storage and you could replace it with a larger, but you have a 1 to SSD (impressive) already. The WSSD is actually a little faster and if you need to edit video or run Photoshop on a big batch of photos you might store on the WSSD for fastest possible disk access.

  • My SSD is not appear in the menu on the boot disk (macbook pro 2012)

    Hello world.  So I just got the macbook pro 2012 and starts to do-it-yourself work last night.  I took out the optical drive, transferred the existing location HARD disk (w / caddy) and installed an SSD in its place.  Then I cloned the SSD HARD drive.  No problems so far.

    When I went to change the boot drive startup disk preferences is where I ran into a problem.  My original HARD drive is the only projection.  I had the problem in choosing the boot drive during the reboot (the SSD will appear in this menu) and makes it the default value it.  SSD works very well and is now my main boot drive.  However, I still would like to show in startup disk preferences.  Is it possible to do (preferably without erasing the SSD)?

    Thank you!

    Relevant info - I'm running El Capitan and I used SuperDuper! to clone the HARD disk.

    OK, can I have found the problem.  Map of partition of the SSD has been MBR, no GUID.  I deleted it, reformatted and I am re-cloning it now.  I'll post the result (I hope that as a confirmed for another solution which meets with this).
