Transferring system to a new disk
On all screenshots below damaged partitions are marked with a red circle with a white cross
inside in the upper left corner. Before you start cloning you should check such disks for errors
using corresponding OS tools.
7.2. Security
Note the following: if lights go out or you accidentally press
RESET
during the
transfer, the procedure will be incomplete and you will have to partition and format
or clone the hard disk again.
No data would be lost on the old disk though; they were only being read (no
partitions are changed or resized).
Nevertheless, we don’t recommend you to delete data from the old disk until you
are sure it is correctly transferred to the new disk, PC boots up from it, and all
applications work.
7.3. Executing transfers
Selecting transfer mode
You will see the
Select transfer mode
window just after the welcome window.
Transfer mode selection
We recommend using automatic mode as suitable for most cases. The manual
mode can be helpful, if you need to change disk partition layout.
