    Too many Partitions on hard drive


    That is true , can't say if there would be an issue at some point as Win10 nowadays likes the "Windows Boot Manager" 1st on that list, and it wouldn't be. Thats the advantage of switching it with Macrium and disabling the Other...especially with two identical clones.....ie: would you realise if you booted into the incorrect drive?
