Macrium reflect free still works and you can tell it to adjust to a different sized destination drive while it’s doing the clone. Save a few steps while still using free software right from within Windows.

Macrium is what I use too. No need for an additional application.

Exactly! Macrium reflect free also works for Mac OS and Linux cloning perfectly using Windows 10/11.

In resuezilla you have gparted. After clone the disks, open gparted and expand the filesystem to his full size.

I am a Linux user. I use gparted all the time, but when I try to expand an NTFS partition with Gparted. Windows doesn't recognize the expanded partition. So I wanted to give Windows users a way to do it within Windows.

How do you run gparted if your system has crashed? Reinstall windows and then run gparted.

AOMEI will resize a clone automatically, either larger to smaller drive (if data fits) or vice versa. Lazesoft does also and believe you have some control. Never used Macrium but as stated here and elsewhere is good too

A question for you: When you clone a drive ... when you replace a failed drive ... how do you preserve links? Links like custom folder icons. I assume that some sort of identifier for the drive, such as a "name" or "label" is one component of the link. I've had to deal with this recently and I lost all of my links ... not the file that contained the information for the links, but the actual established link to each custom folder icon. This after I carefully renamed the new drive to the name of the old drive. Not sure what the computer uses in the link components ... the UUID seems to not be a likely candidate.

Disks have 'spare sectors', that is, there is more there than the amount you purchased. If a sector has an error, it is marked bad and a spare sector is 'mapped' to it's location and takes over from the bad sector. By the time all the spare sectors are used up and you start seeing errors and sometimes even warnings that the drive size has changed due to bad sectors being taken offline with no spares left... the drive is really bad at that point. Take your data off of it and smash it up and recycle it.

Thank you for the video. My question is can I use the same steps on windows environment but cloning Mac hard drive? I have a 200 GB SSD on my Mac book pro and I wanted to clone it into a 512 ssd. I tried the Mac cloning through the Macbook pro and did not work.

Good tutorial. Have you ever had any issues when cloning a Ventoy drive? It won't boot unless you reorganize the partitions after cloning...

I am new to Linux, but has a fairly good PC knowledge. There so many versions Linux out there, what: 1. Version of Linux should install to learn, maybe install a more advance one later 2. This version must already have available features, main ones include:: audio, web browsing and networking. A recommendation is appreciated.

On Rufus you left it at MBR, why didnt you change it to GPT?
@George_K1
@George_K1 5 ай бұрын
Why would you want GPT on a USB Key? To boot via UEFI you will need the EFI partition on a GPT disk While both UEFI and BIOS can boot from and MBR disk, ONLY UEFI can boot from GPT disk ... And UEFI can boot from an MBR in Legacy mode mimicking (legacy) BIOS

Those Samsung Bar USB drives are great for running Linux Mint on a Chromebook that only has a 16GB drive in it. With the metal casing they dissipate heat very well and won't burn up, now the other USB drive you have there, the Samsung Fit can't do that, it will get hot very fast. I have many of both types. It made zero sense that you left the Rufus with MBR, definately should have been GPT because of the number of partitions needed. Another simple way to clone a drive is many docks have that ability and it can be done without tying up your computer.

The Samsung bar is the best USB ever. I bought one by chance a few years ago. son borrowed it for school and left it in his pants. Went thru the washer and part way thru the dryer before I heard the clanking. Drive still works fine to this day. Amazon had the 64GB on sale last year for like 10.00 each. I bought 20 of them. I also have the 128, 256 and 512 depending on the application (IT guy here) It's the only USB I use. As far as cloning I got ACRONIS TRUE IMAGE way back when it was free like Marcruim. Now they charge per year, bastards. But my old copy still works on everything I do and it expands the partition automatically.

You did the drive resize the hard way when you had Gparted right there on the USB drive.

There is no such thing as "Mac IOS." There is macOS and iOS. macOS is for Macs. iOS is for Phones/tablets. Rescuezilla would be useful ONLY for x86_64 (Intel) Macs, and those are all discontinued/obsolete at this point. Rescuezilla will NOT work with ANY iOS device ever made! Rufus is nice if you're putting a single ISO on a USB stick. Ventoy will allow you to put multiple ISO images on a single larger capacity USB stick or even an NVME in an USB case. It is worth mentioning that while Rescuezilla is great, it's been over a year since the last update. There are also some caveats that require a "Clean" shutdown of Windows or the disabling of hibernation or your will have issues with the restored images.

This will NOT work on Macintosh machines. First, the new Macs have Apple's chips, which are proprietary and would required a hack to get to boot from USB into Linux. With that completed, you'd still be up against Apple's new file system, whose specs has NOT been released to the public yet. After almost 8 years!! I paid almost $200 for an app that died about a year later, simply because Apple changed it's format. And THAT company hasn't figured it out or paid the license yet. So, I SERIOUSLY doubt this crap app will do EVERYTHING you claim it will. - Apple Tech, since 1983
