Clone a 1TB hdd, to a 120 gb SSD, how to?
Hi,
I want to copy windows 7 and a couple of programs(windows office, google chrome, spotify, fallout 4) to my SSD. however i read that i cant just do that. i have about 1TB of total data which is on 1 hdd. i have a blank 1 TB hdd which i can temporarily use, and the 120 gb ssd.
Can i do the next steps without endangering my data:
1. Clone my 1 TB of data to my blank hdd, as backup.
2. get the old hdd which still has all my data. then remove all the data i dont want ending up on the new ssd. (so windows 7 and my important programs will only be left on the old hdd)
3. clone this hdd to the ssd.
4. use the ssd to boot the computer which should be fully functional with these few programmes.
5. get the backup hdd, plug it in, and use as mass storage.(which still has all my old documents etc.(fully accessible))
please tell me if this could work, or are there any alternatives?
If it doesnt work, would it for instance help reduce loading times when i move Fallout 4 to my ssd, and keep windows 7 on the hdd?
Thank you!!
