Comments

  1. have you tried EaseUs on very large drives around 2 terabytes? If so how long would that take? A week and a half?
  2. acronis is garbage
  3. Hi, tech test tutorials I have a question is it possible to clone RAID0 to SSD. I currently have RAID0 on two HDD's which are 1Tb each and I bought a Samsung Evo ssd 1Tb. I'm trying to use Macrium software and not sure if my data will fit.

    This is what I currently have on my two HDD's showing from Macrium software : https://puu.sh/spxcO/3f1078c87e.png . As you can see I have 1.12Tb + 66.6Mb in size will that fit on my 1Tb ssd?
  4. This can be done with clonezilla:

  5. will it automatically delete the hdd if you're moving it to an ssd
  6. I used Todo Backup to clone to a smaller SSD. It took about 5 mouse clicks and worked perfectly cloning 3 partitions in one go.
    Didn't need a repair disk just booted up with the new drive. Didn't boot properly the first time but it fixed itself and booted perfectly the second time.
    Todo is free too, I was seriously impressed by how easy to use it was and how well it did the job.
  7. I almost get it. But, you should have just explained how to do it, instead of just advertising the product while you clicked your way through it. I purchased the Acronis True Image 2016 and got that same failure code MFT bitmap corrupted. PLUS, my source drive also got corrupted and now won't boot! I have no idea why Acronis corrupted the "working" drive! I'm now dead.
