    DUAL OS Copy disk from OLD to NEW NVME but C:drive not "migrating"


    Hello I am trying to move my entire Disk from a Patriot 120Gb NVME to a new WD 500Gb one. I have Ubuntu 18.04 and Windows10 installed on my machine as Dual OS. I used to copy Disk wizard in Minitool partition and I believe it went well as I can see all my partitions there and I can boot in UBUNTU as I used to. Problem I see is that the C:drive where Windows is installed seems to be left on the old Patriot NVME rather than migrating to the new NVME one. I have forced my machine to boot into the new WD NVME as you can see here but it just doesn't make it have the C:drive set onto that disk and I have even removed any disk from the Boot Option but it seems to me the machine is booting in the Old Patriot NVME anyway I was thinking or did try these Options 1. Change M letter to C manually but Windows Disk Management or Minitool wizard don't allow me 2. Making an image of the entire disk with Macrum reflect and format the old Patriot NVME I appreciate if anyone could provide some guidance on how sensible is this Option2 and what other choice, maybe more simple I have to achieve the goal to have the C:drive onto the new NVME disk Thanks so much Oli

    :)

    OS and Data Migration Issues

    I recently bought a new SSD to replace my old one that has Windows installed on it but I am having tons of issues copying everything over to the new drive.

    Samsung's data migration tool isn't working and I keep getting an error from MiniTool that the boot and system volume are on different drives so I cannot migrate my OS onto my new drive. According to the disk manager it appears that System is installed on
    my HDD and the rest of the windows installation is on my old SSD. I would like to move the system installation from my P: drive onto my C: drive if possible. However I'm open to other suggestions.

    Replacing old hard drive, need way to copy Windows installation across

    Hey Guys,
    What would be the best way of copying/imaging the entire contents of an old system drive over to a replacement hard disk for the same machine? I need to copy the Windows installations and all other data to the new drive, and then format the old drive to use as a backup.

    Any suggestions? *Smile DUAL OS Copy disk from OLD to NEW NVME but C:drive not "migrating" :)

    Migrating Win10 to NVMe SSD

    I am going to try what you suggested. I just tried using Linux Mint boot cd to hopefully erase the SSD. Unfortunately there seems to be some sort of encryption on the SATA SSD that prevents Linux from managing the SSD. Funny thing is I never used bitlocker on the SATA SSD.
