There are several options depending on whether you want something free or

don't mind paying.



For cloning, I would recommend either XXCLONE:

http://www.xxclone.com/

which is free, but requires use of the JAWS cursor or equivalent.



Cloning, Casper:

https://www.fssdev.com/products/casper/



which is not free, but is more accessible than XXCLONE.



For imaging, I would recommend



Imaging, Active@ Disk Image Lite:

http://www.disk-image.net/disk-image-freeware.htm

if you want something that is free. If you don't mind paying, then I would


recommend either



Imaging, Image for Windows:

http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/image-for-windows.htm



Imaging, Drive Snapshot:

http://www.drivesnapshot.de/en/



All three of these imaging applications are accessible.

Hi everyone,



I have not had to do this for a very long time, but I now find that I want
to clone the HDD in my laptop computer to an SSD to install and boost it's
performance. Firstly, I would like to know which softwares are the most
accessible to use, and what about using Windows System Image Backup for
this
purpose. Secondly, I have a small problem with the SSD that I have. It is a
256 GB drive and it cannot be recognized when connected via a USB port, it
must be connected via a SATA connection to be recognized by Windows , Win
10
in my case. Is there a device that will allow you to split a SATA
connection
into two? Any advice and/or solutions that can be offered are appreciated.
Thanks for your help.



Michael
