    Hello
    I have a netbook with two SSDs (eee 901). I'd like to clone C: to D:, which is larger and faster, and render the old drive invisible. Anyway Acronis 11 won't let me clone to the larger drive for two reasons:

    1. The disk has errors (it doesn't)

    2. The destination is too small (it isn't).

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Have you tried this when booted from the TI Rescue CD? Once you perform the clone, be sure and remove or disconnect one drive before the first boot following the clone.

    Hello capatt and mojonba,

    Thank you for choosing Acronis Disk Backup Software.

    We are sorry for delayed response.

    If the issue persists, please collect some information to let us investigate it thoroughly:

    Please create Acronis Report, Windows system information and Linux system information (sysinfo.txt) as it is described in Acronis Help Post.

    Then submit a request for technical support or use our Live Chat service. Attach all the collected files and information to your request along with the step-by-step description of the actions taken before the problem appears and the link to this thread. We will do our best to investigate the problem and provide you with a solution.
