I've had great luck with Macrium Reflect (free version).
hi mate is there a way I could create a uefi windows xp install iso
@@z95m Free Version does not function anymore, tried it a couple months ago.
I have used Samsung Data Migration, Macrium Reflect (free version) and also AOMEI Backupper. However, i found Samsung Data Migration to be very easy and very much Effective.
@@ARUNBALAJIJ does the Samsung cloner also work on drives of other brands Western Digital for example ??
Thanks so much for this video,I was able by using O&O trial version, clone an old gateway laptop drive that had on an old software i cannot find anymore and i still use.
I use Acronis, it adds any extra, free disk space to the main boot drive automatically which makes sense as most people clone to add speed and space.
Just downloaded the program, can't even boot into their software atm. Says failed to connect despite of having wifi connection 😭
@@anomarie - Sounds like you have wrong program - no network is required to clone 2 local drives?!
I kept on getting the message not enough space I have 4gb left like what am I supposed to do
Thanks bro I will stick to mini partion tool and paragon, please do a vid on strelic win pe it's what we use at my company.
See what I can do
Excellent and clear description of the process of cloning
I still love Macrium Reflect
Yeah, me too
Great video as always
Thanks for sharing your experiences with all of us :-)
My pleasure!
The last one I used was Samsung magician on a Samsung SSD, worked great first time 👍
Some of those Samsung, Seagate and similar proprietary software only clone disk of their own brand, so they are useless if none of your disk are.
@@redangrybird7564 Yes, so what. Samsung makes the best SSDs
@@Nick41622 LOL, not everyone buys Samsung disks, so keep your disk and be happy.
@@redangrybird7564 I will, & you can buy inferior quality.
@@redangrybird7564 SSD, not disk.
Very useful. Thanks
Wonderful work
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks Bryan I'll have to try this, cheers 👍
Based on your previous video, I been using aomei backupper ever since.
Aomei backupper deals with cloning different sizes, the O&O wouldnt work. I am using a Fideco dual bay HDD dock station Y842H. Has anyone had luck with these in standalone or another brands?
Whats difference between CLONING and OS Image Back up ?
for anyone wanting to use the software for more then 30 days lookup clockblock or time stopper apps
How does this software deal with Secure Boot? whenever I clone I can't boot off the cloned disk, even thought the process completes.
Would there be the Windows Licensing problems if you used the newly cloned drive in a separate computer?
Yes
It would not be activated if its a different pc
Hi, great videos. a question i have , if i clone a hard drive for a new machine, what happens to my windows licence?
I’ll stick with a acronis because I don’t have to mess around with the partitions afterwards. But thanks for the video anyway.
I find the new Acronis a little bloated now Nick
Wow, it's amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
Well Brian, that looks like an easy way to make a bootable PC from a USB stick. it does all the hard work for you. ready made PC in a pocket.
Yeah, super easy
Thanks the video 👍
No problem 👍
Great video as always. I'm still looking for an app that backs up all your documents/apps/settings and transfer them back after a fresh install of Windows. So I can finally have a clean OS, without needing to reinstall everything and reset all my settings. It's gone through many OS upgrades over the years. lol
Great tip!
I suggest MiniTool ShadowMaker Free 3.6 & if you get the Ultimate it's a life time licence, with some very handy options, just like what your looking for.
@@Ratchet_effect That does the entire system. I just want to backup all the documents, applications and settings. That way I can do a fresh install of Windows and transfer everything back. My current install of Windows was upgraded from Win7 to Win8 to Win8.1 and then Windows 10. It's old af and now has a ton of issues.
@@BadWolfPlays66 I don't do the whole system I choose what I want backed up, you don't have to do the complete system. Wow! you never formatted the OS Hard drive at all? all my days that dive must be heavily fragmented as hell right now. I'd get off what you want to save A.S.A.P more so sooner than later if your having issues I wouldn't hang around saving precious files. I send my files over a network and for extra saves to external hard rives too!
@@Ratchet_effect It didn't give me the option to just backup the things I wanted. Maybe someone can do a video to show how to do it.
Nice and simple software. :)
Indeed!
Unfortunately this software, on which I have relied on for years for full system backups, is bugged when handling cloning or restoring to the now universal UEFI boot method. I had the need to clone a failing C drive SSD running Windows 10 today. Both cloning, and restoring from a backup image file made before starting, produced an unbootable copy that wouldn't even repair with a system recovery disk. Solution was to do a clean install of windows 10 to the new disk and then just restore the C drive partition only and not the other 3! Horrible bug, but at least I found a way around it. Make sure you have your windows install USB drive to hand!
2:10 What does it mean, "after 30 days you will have to purchase the software?" Is it going to let me clone my drive and then after 30 days disable my cloned drive unless I pay?
Still works as of June 16th 2023
nice. software looks good.
It was!
Great video. Had a problem with process. Cloned as per video using O&O Diskimage 18, but the pop up for making target bootable never came up and the new SSD won't boot. Software or process problem? Ideas.
I have the same issue, and as he hasn't bothered to respond to you...
Did you figure yours out? with this or other software?
I used to use Acronis, but they have gone way off topic with security software, which took me almost 3 days to completely uninstall. Acronis beware folks!
They changed Acronis True Image to Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office. I use the last known version of True Image ISO. Don't need to install it.
I agree, Acronis have gone down the security root a fair bit. Bloated for backup only now
Please help me Im trying to clone my system drive hdd to ssd and it says " A too small target was chosen for the target selection.
@Britec09 did it clone your shortcuts too?
it clones the whole drive
@@Britec09 Thx :)
How to do cloning from internal hdd to crucial bx 500 sata ssd ?
I had to smile because on one of my drives my name is also 'ItsMe'.....:)
However, I am no where as talented as you Sir, so perhaps I should to it to 'Idiot here' instead....
(I use Acronis TI, AOMEI Backupper, Ashampoo Backup Pro 16, and not used any of these for a while now)
But might give this a go tomorrow because Ii have used 'O&O software before....:)
AOMEI Backupper, is also good
@@Britec09
Cheers.....😀
@@Britec09
Thanks, and I think I have the 'free' versions, although I may have bought the Acronis software, and it's been a while since using any of them.
Why didn't it have the option to auto use all of the capacity on the destination drive? That should be a basic option.
Never give me that option
@@Britec09 ???
@@jeffreyphipps1507 It never gave him that option
I am so lost and terrified to move everything from my HDD to a SSD I wanna get, I have tons of mods and games that took years to get set up right and everything working/downloaded and I don’t wanna start all over again
Useful content.
Glad you think so!
i got a few popups saying 'drive d must be formatted' and when i clicked the format button it said i couldnt format. it seems to be working fine but i just wanna make sure
lets say you got a hard drive you want to copy or duplicate it. Lets say you got a hard drive that windows can not read it prompts you to do a format of the drive, but you know the drive is fine for another operating system. You just want to make a exact copy of it. Would this software do it? or some other type of software for windows to do it?
This is very interesting and helpful. Is this method better than the clone feature of Macrium Reflect? I have the paid version of that. Thanks.
Macrium Reflect is very good.
Hey sir can you make a video of how to download Microsoft oem key windows 11 and remove old oem key
OEM key is tired to the motherboard and cannot be transferred. If you want to activate with new key, just change key and activate
Thank you
Can you clone a hard drive on a mini PC that cannot be opened? I want to upgrade a computer that has no visible screws and I don't want to break my machine
Hello, 1 x Thermal Conductive Pad, you used in NVMe external enclose? For nvme...disk... i will do the same soon
you do not use it? is any impact?
nice one
Thanks
Perfect
Thanks
I never got the bootable popup
Same did it work for you
Now Rian I have used Macrium Reflect in the past but have not had much luck as it often used to stop the clone halfway through the process and I don't know why. Do you think it was that I was trying to clone from a 500GB drive to a 500GB drive? I don't have to do this right now but this software does look good and is not so complicated as the Macrium set-up. I have looked at the AOMEI software for this but never have tried it.
According to the website, one direction says that O&O Disk image 17 will "only" create on a 2T (min) drive, due to certain restrictions. Also, that any unallocated space will be unusable after that. So, if I use a 2T SSD, and only write for ex. 512 GB, the other 1.5GB will be useless. Isn't that a huge waste of storage? It would be nice to know if the software tells you how much space you require for your info.
To be honest, I never read the website, am doing now
How do i make the whole drive available and not just what i cloned?? Do i partition it or do i have to do something else?
Hello there. If I install a clone of any computer on my own computer, will it give an error?
i keep getting windows refresh cycle .used cruicial image and used minitool
Brian - I have a game, Silent Hills PT on an old PS4 that I bought some time ago, PlayStation gave away the game (it's actually a demo) as a free download years ago and have long since withdrawn it (some dispute with the game publisher Konami).
I'd like to transfer the game to my PS4 Pro, but it seems that when I clone the PS4 hard drive the cloned PS4 Pro hard drive works fine, but the game icon shows a lock and is unplayable unless I sign in with the original downloader's account (it's not me as I bought the console 2nd hand).
The game plays fine on the original PS4, but how can I unlock it for the PS4 Pro without that original account ?
Also too small to know the difference between 'too' and 'to'
What is an other way I can clone the data instead of a inclosure
MOST common use of this is to CLONE the BOOT Drive . Ok . Most common use of THAT process is to UPGRADE , ARCHIVE or REPLACE the Boot drive . WHY do the folks making these vids NOT show the most LIKELY scenario - making ONE larger volume on the target drive from a smaller SOURCE drive ? Its always "you can do that later" or we'll do something SIMPLER here today _instead_ ?
can u clone from the external to the internal pc
i struggling to clone my io from sata M2. to nvme pcie 3.0 m.2,i using dule pcie card that has sata on one and next to it nvme slot new

Macrium reflect free - excellent and FREE

Nicenice
Does this work w windows 7?
Can`t speak for this O&O but i used Macrium Reflect on Win 7 some 3 years ago when i upgraded my old PC to an SSD.
Idk if you know so will let you know but, the content you upload really isn't available anywhere else on the internet not just RUclips like there is no other place to diagnose, learn about, or do anything related to windows & your personal system that is better than your channel. Like not even nearly
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Not free software
I hope you're still reading the comments because my laptop will not boot into safe mode no matter what I do. I normally troubleshoot myself and occasionally find new ways to fix an issue when it comes up but I cannot for the life of me get my asus into safe mode boot
