    Restoring Windows on SSD


    I have 1 TB sata hard drive, having 100 GB partition for Windows 10 and 2 GB System Reserved. I have macrium reflect backup of these partitions. I want to restore my backup to 140 GB SSD. I want to know if there will be any problem or benefit and also , is there any benefit if windows is kept on a different hard disk and data on other hard disk.

    :)
     

  2. Windows XP PRO error after restore

    System restore is handy when it works like it did for me 2 days ago saving the need to reinstall all of my software as well as windows, id suggest using norton Ghost 12 for an excellent system restore feature.

    Restoring Windows 10 Image using Macrium Reflect


    In addition to the above. Here's my suggestion in step by step.
    I assume you have Macrium Installed in your current HD and already made a backup copy.
    • Connect your new HD via USB port and boot up.
    • Run Macrium, click on Restore tab then select the Backup Image that you made to restore
    • click on "select a different target disk" then select your new HD as destination

    • Proceed to restore then Shutdown and disconnect the old HD and replace with the new HD
    • Boot up with your new HD.

    Restoring Windows on SSD

    Macrium Reflect and SSD drive


    Here's an easy way to do it, With your SSD connected.

    • If not already done. Create a backup image of your current Windows HD. From Macrium, click on "Create an image of the partition(s) required to backup and restore Windows"
      NOTE: you could actually clone the disk, but create a backup then restore will allow Macrium to correctly align the cluster size and perform trimming on the new SSD.
    • After step 1 is done, click on Restore tab, select the image from step 1 then click on Select different target disk, select the SSD as destination disk then click on Next->Finish. No need to use/boot from Rescue disk. It will be faster and Macrium will also perform trimming on the new SSD.
    • Disconnect the HD and reboot. Windows should boot up with the new SSD.
