The PC boots off of that partition and then loads Windows from the Windows partition. The System Reserved partition is, I think, the boot partition. As far as allocating the unused portion of the new disk - I'm having trouble with that part - but will read some more to make sure I'm doing it correctly.īTW, since I started doing this yesterday, I'm not sure if they were there the first time I did this, but I'm confused about the additional partitions on my current win10 disk call "System Reserved G" and "NTFS Primary" - along with the C - NTFS active partion?

See Steps 4 and 5 of this page from Macrium's documentation covering how to clone a disk for how to stage that type of restore.īTW, I created a rescue media and chose the option "Windows Boot Menu" restarted and ran the Fit boot program at startup. The fact that you have a Recovery partition between that partition and your unallocated space will make it harder to do that after the fact. + Biasotti Unless you plan to use that 700GB+ of unallocated space to create one or more new partitions, you should rerun the clone and this time stage it in a way that causes that space to be allocated to the Windows partition. I'd recommend disconnecting the original disk before running those and when first attempting to boot from the new disk, even if you want to reconnect it to use it for another purpose later. Same goes for the Fix Boot Problems wizard. See Steps 4 and 5 of this page from Macrium's documentation covering how to clone a disk for how to stage that type of restore.Īnd if you've moving from SATA to NVMe or vice versa, you might have to run ReDeploy afterward, which can be accomplished from Rescue Media. Okay, answering my own question - Yes, I create a rescue media (I can do it as a DVD) - I'll give that a try.īy jphughan - 30 November 2020 8:12 Biasotti Unless you plan to use that 700GB+ of unallocated space to create one or more new partitions, you should rerun the clone and this time stage it in a way that causes that space to be allocated to the Windows partition.

I have attempted this a few times in the last few hours but have not been successful? When I go to change the boot order in my BIOS to the newly cloned drive to be the first to boot, windows does not load it and warns me of a problem. I've attached my VSS log of my clone process I followed videos on how to clone my current SSD to the new SSD.
I installed the new drive in my MB M2 slot and then launched windows and verified that the Drive exists, but not unallocated. The current drive is a corsair 250G SDD and the newer drive is a Western Digital 1TB SN750 NVMe - WDS100T3X0C.
