You can add the empty space with Macrium while it is cloning the drive, very handy if there is multiple partitions like a normal windows drive. The only pain is the empty space has to be next to the partition you want to expand, and get out a calculator to add the left over empty space after it calculates for a full clone, remove the partitions after the partition you want to add the empty space to, add the partition size and the left over empty space, then add the remaining partitions again. It is a little more involved but comes in handy when the main partition is in the middle of your drive when cloning it. I ran into this issue when I upgraded my laptop from a HDD to a slightly larger SSD.

Great vid, very helpful! Just 3 short takeaway: 1. I would avoid plugging in both external drives into the same USB-Hub. Most of them use cheap controller-chips, so you bottleneck yourself while copying. I would rather use 2 ports on the I/O-panel. 2. There is no need to format the new drive in advance in disk-manager. Macrium will handle it on its own while cloning (sort of). But anyways, no need for this step. 3. Sometimes, as I found out recently, Steam will not detect the games in the newly addd folder on its own. So you need to "install" the games first to detect them (same procedure as in Origin). And you forgot about UPlay and Blizzard App. They have another cool feature where you can tell the launcher where your games files are, just by clicking "discover existing files" instead of "install game". You don't even need to add a new folder for your games. Even more straightforward.... As I said, still a great vid. And I totally wanna see the OS-cloning.

(4:43) When cloning with Macrium, you can clone it without formatting the drive first. You can also click on "Copy selected partitions" and from there you can just drag it so it uses up all the drive's capacity.

A shortcut for those interested. Macrium should pick up on the unformatted disk. You just need to drag and drop the partitions from the source disk to the target as mentioned at 4:44. If there's data already on the disk then delete the existing partitions. Extending the partition can be done from that same screen as well (Automatically for the last partition you drag/drop I believe)

Buy a Samsung Pro or Evo! They're a tiny bit more expensive but they're better drives and come with 1-button software to transfer the data to a new drive. All you need to do is make sure the drive itself is plugged into the motherboard directly so it can read the serial number and the software activates and functions for free with the drive. It saves my company a ton of time, we do these transfers all the time.

Slight correction on the steam thing. It defaults a game location where you have Steam installed. Like in my case it's on my 2ndary drive, I therefore do not have a steam library on my C. If you don't reinstall steam, and go to the directory, click on the EXE, everything is already like you copied it. Origin/Uplay makes it difficult, especially if you have lots of games. Steam you can literally just copy the Steam folder and run the exe, set to run at startup.

You probably don't even need to read as they most likely provide screenshots. Also, who does not accidentally stumble across the game backup feature on steam, I imagine it is easy enough to use too. Even then, a little research goes a long way...are people really incapable of following instructions "on paper" now? I guess we now need video instructions for everything, because it's gotta be entertaining too for those that can't pay attention past the 3rd word of a sentence. Most articles keep it concise. All I would add is: Sometimes the savefiles are in the game folder (non-issue), but they can also be in the documents folder. In that case, if cloud saves are enabled, that is again a non-issue. But if you have a game that does not support it, you have to backup that folder as well. Unless steam does it automatically via the backup feature (never needed to use it and it's not really an issue that needs googling), though I expect it to strictly work with the game files/folder only.
@fragalot
@fragalot 6 жыл бұрын
2:55 or right click on the start menu button, and choose "Disk Management" :3 Also you don't need to clone your drive to move your Steam Library around, after all they are just files, it's not like they are system files that need to be in an exact position on the drive (like the MBR). Steam it self already allows you to move your library to another folder, or drive. You only need to clone a drive if you're copying a boot drive, and you need EVERY single sector intact. Otherwise you're wasting time copying over other random folders, hidden system folders, and the recycle bin when all you need is your Steam games copied.

Jay, I also use Reflect but in the video you gloss over very quickly what it is and what it does. Beginners will be confused as it is not clear in the vid. Also, instead of a clone I would have done an image file for the source drive. Faster that way. When restoring the image to the target drive Macrium automatically extends the partition to use the full drive's capacity. No need to go back to Storage management.

If you plan on putting a bigger drive in your system but also want to keep the smaller one installed, you can also use a program like Steam Mover to move games to the bigger drive. I believe it only works if the source drive for the games is still installed, but it is a good way to free up space on a smaller SSD. I've used it for years with no problems, and it even retained my settings through a Windows 10 upgrade and a fresh install of Windows.

I have cloned my games and moved them for FREE a few days ago, here's how I did it: Plug in 1tb external hard drive Open G:\ (drive where the games reside on) Ctrl + A, Ctrl + C Open external drive folder Ctrl + V Take external drive to friend, plug it in. Sign in to Steam on his computer, point the steam library to the external drive, done. (I know that this may not work for certain non-steam games depending on how they were activated due to missing registry entries, I've taken my system drive SSD with me aswell) Now let's see which more complicated way Jay will suggest that would warrant needing a tutorial. :p Edit: Why the hell is he copying the drive on which the windows installation resides, when this was about games? The whole thing with any decent-sized game library is that they don't fit on the system SSD due to usually ending up 400gb + Why need the reflect tool (which I agree to be a useful tool for copying stuff like system drives, which can't just be drag/dropped)?

It would be AWESOME to have a video about OS cloning and even OS migration, like *move* (not clone) all OS related files from a drive to another and keep the rest of the non-OS related files on the original drive!

This black Friday I will be getting my first ever SSD to give my AMD FX8320 and new lease on life. So would really really love a video on cloning my Win10 drive so I dont right away have to do a full reinstall on the new drive. Thanks Jay

this came at a perfect time for me, latest windows update destroyed my win10 boot but i can still access the drive through an external driver reader and i didnt want to have to re-download all my games.

I have a portable SSD and I have my games saved up there. The fun part is I can play those games in any gaming computer without having it to transfer but just opening it from the external folder itself.

note that everything you set up around 3:35 will be lost after the clone, but helpful for the case where you have a drive not showing up and not wanting to clone over it but use it directly

Here's an idea for a future video, show us what bottlenecks actually look like. Like, what effect does a slow memory kit have vs a small size memory kit, an old cpu with newer hardware, and old gpu with newer hardware. What effect does each have? Are the noticeably different effects from each other?

When you are using macrium before you hit finish hit advanced and you can automatically expand the drive so you don't have to go to disk management and expand. Save you some click and time.

Easier option. Why clone the whole partition over when one can simply copy the Steam folders over to a new drive. When I copied my 700 GB Steam library to a new drive I did just that. Just copied the files over. No need to bother with partitioning the drive. Just set it up like you initially did and copy the library over. Done. Worked for me. Just offering options that might be simpler.

Macrium let's you set the size of the cloned partition before you start it. Also, it's one of the few cloning tools that let's you clone to a partition smaller than the source (that's not full). Saved my ass when I went from a 500GB HDD to a 256GB SSD.

I'd love to see a Windows clone video too. I got a good deal on a 500GB 860 Evo recently and plan on using it in the next laptop I buy. I plan on buying a laptop with just some garbage HDD to keep the price down then swap it with the SSD so I'd like to learn how to clone the OS that will come on the HDD to the new SSD before I install it.

Thank you Jay! Thise really helped me fix my new (AMD 5600) system I just built. To move windows operating system to the drive I originally wanted it on. After I had to remove some weird bit locker that some how ended up on it. Which was a new out of the box (NOT EVEN BEEN INSTALLED INTO A SYSTEM TILL NOW) Weird but got it fixed. Yay! *happy dance* I have a video recommendation. Do a video on the the difference on a fresh windows install between AMD & INTEL when not able to use an network cable straight to a router hun. I'm making this recommendation based on the fact I had to spend over 3hrs manual downloading & installing drivers I needed for my motherboard from another computer on an external hard drive. Because wifi wouldn't work or even show up when loaded into windows 10 pro fresh install. System info: AMD 5600 Asus x570 I gaming mini itx with wifi and Bluetooth (2x8) 16 ddr4 3600 oyol rgb white ram Corsair mp500 240g main drive(gen 3 m.2) mounted on back of motherboard Samsung 980 pro (gen 4 m.2) 1tb mounted on front of motherboard under its rgb heat sink slot PNY 1TB 2.5 SSD GIGABYTE 1080TI OC GAMMING WHITE IN a phanteks evolv shift xt silver with their 750 platinum sfx power supply & 240 glacier one white AIO (BUNDLE DEAL I GOT FOR ABOUT $400) Which I'm temporarily running till I do a custom soft tubing loop. Which I just found a small enough EK ddc pump that will just barely fit in with a little Vaseline, hair and a shoe horn. Yes its going to be like the way the Germans like their cars and women. Good-n-tight but I can already see how I can makeit work. Thanks to the AIO cooler and after looking at a bunch of different 240mm radiator. 😈😈😈😈😈😈 mauhahahaha!

Some games will store save and configuration files in the Windows user directory. The usb hard drive won't have those files so those files have to be copied and transferred to the other PC. Some games also have registry files on the PC so without them the game that is copied on the other PC may not work.
