Windows 10: Is Macrium a good app to clone a system hdd to a much smaller ssd?

That WAS for 40 Years, now a days people are just googling and youtubing. Even my daughter, she finds a youtube video for everything. *chuckle

 

I've had so many hospital biopsies that they can build another me No cloning involved.

 

At least Macrium uses Cloning and Imaging as two distinct processes but most people don't understand the difference until they use the program.

Hi there

I rest my Case !!!!!!

Actually with VR and Robotics becoming much more mainstream these days people should certainly be well aware of the difference between imaging and cloning -- but I believe the OP has solved the issue and moved the OS to a smaller HDD/SSD/Partition.

I CLONED/IMAGED the full size of the larger HDD to the smaller HDD. Macrium automatically shrunk the C: Drive to fit on the smaller HDD.

Hi there

I think I've learnt over the years - never ever argue Literature etc with anybody from "The Emerald Isle" -- You'll always Lose !!!.

Great place though the Republic -- always have a great time there - even if it does cost me more than a few EUR !! - and of course what about the famous exports of those great Irish Bars (even if some are constructed in Hong Kong etc) !!!!

I remember a famous one in Brussels (more than a few by the way over there) when the Irish Ambassador performed the opening ceremony -- that's a SENSIBLE thing for Ambassadors to perform !!

O'Reilly's - Just near the Brussels Stock exchange.

Great DECENT Guinness and Irish Stew in that place !!!!

Best Irish bar in Paris - small and cozy and in district where the French go out not tourists.

Kilty’s - Pubs - 2 rue de la Roquette, 11ème, Paris, France - Phone Number - Yelp

 

Hi there
@cereberus

Been there too -- great as well

Perhaps we should start a new thread -- Best Irish Bars outside the Republic !!!! - actually I've never been into a horrible one !!

France - especially Paris though is an order of magnitude more expensive than Belgium !! - especially Brussels which for a Capital City is astoundingly cheap -- it's got a far worse reputation than it really deserves --it's more a Working city than a mega Tourist destination and it's not too big either.

Yeah - start one in chillout section!

 

See my guide here which has some useful tips http://www.eightforums.com/installat...s-hdd-ssd.html

I had no problems using Macrium Reflect and imaging rather than cloning the drive.

 

Spent the afternoon straightening pins in a 1150 soccket with a pin and magnifiying glass. Motherboard boots up now. Whoop.

 

No go. Only boots to code 55. No POST beep.

 

Looks like it might be time to start shopping for a new MB *Rolleyes
