![]() ![]() Now I have a bootable SSD and a non-bootable clone of the drive and I need to restor e everything that I had on the drive before the crash. I decided to install Macrium Reflect 7 Free on the SSD to use it as a clone of the external hard drive. Once selected, select the Clone this disk option below it. Unfortunately I didn’t manage to boot my device from this cloned, external drive. Once installed, run the software and make sure that the checkbox next to the disk containing your system partition (C:) is selected. To begin, download and install the Home Use version of Macrium Reflect Free from the Macrium Reflect website. ![]() ![]() You can also use this to clone Windows to a larger driver if you’d prefer.īefore you follow these steps, make sure that both your existing hard drive and new hard drive are connected to your PC and are detectable in Windows. The free version of Macrium Reflect allows you to clone your Windows installation from a larger to a smaller drive, resizing the partition table in the process. Various tools exist for this method, but one good (and free) option is to use Macrium Reflect Free. Unfortunately, as this process doesn’t work if you’re moving from a larger to smaller drive, you’ll need to use third-party software to copy Windows instead. Using a new system image to clone your hard drive is still the best way to migrate Windows 10 to a new hard drive. Transfer Windows 10 to a Different Sized Hard Drive Using Third-Party Software After a few moments, your system partition will be expanded to include the additional space on your drive, ensuring that all available drive space is usable. ![]()
