I've successfully managed to clone the HDD to the target SSD now, though instead of Macrium i used the tool that came with my EVO SSD - It took care of everything for me in that regard and worked like a charm.
Thanks again for the help! - Regards |

Yep well doesn't really what youuse as long as it does the job but it's always a good idea to get advice first as there are some programs out there that really are not much good.
Justas a by the by Macrium is also good for imaging your drive as well as cloning and you would be as well to image on a regular basis in case of crashes Imaging with free Macrium - Windows 7 Help Forums You may be even interested in this too *USING OPTIMISE TUTORIAL Just a little something that will make your machine a little faster and more efficient is this Optimize Windows 7 - Windows 7 Help Forums It is my bible when installing an OS on my machines and also when I am fixing friends and family machines too. Now if you go through it slowly you will find lots of tweaks and they are all really thoroughly done by the authour Brink a fellow who is in my mind brilliant and if you need to ask questions he is just the most obliging person around. The other thing is that you may lose some of the "bling" such as transparency (you don't have to I find it unnecessary) and all the tweaks are reversible. If you do get stuck just post back in that tutorial and you will get help. Another bonus using this tutorial is that it helps you find your way around your machine and Windows 7! Just one tip I would say you start with is do this Registry - Backup and Restore - Windows 7 Help Forums do this and it will save you a lot of grief if you are ever doing things in the registry and even if you don't it is a good back up to have if your system ever gets corrupted.

Hi all, ran across this post on a search. I am trying to move a hard drive containing Win7 from a Gigabyte NUC to an Intel NUC. Is using sysprep still the go-to method? The only other software I ran across was Acronis Universal Restore, and then this forum also had a post using an older version of Paragon Adaptive Restore. Also, should I be placing the drivers for the receiving system somewhere for Windows to find when it sets everything up? Thank you.

Still works perfectly
Old thread, I know but just wanted to say it still works perfectly.
Just moved a SSD from a dying HP XW4400 (leaking caps) I use for a family Web Server to a replacement Dell Inspiron 660. On first boot after moving the SSD, Windows 7 got enough drivers working I could then proceed to download and install all the ones needed. Computer is up, fully functional, no yellow marks in Device Manager and the web server is online and happy. Thanks Kari. |
