By cloning operating system, installed programs, files, mails, photos and other data would largely save time and energy to reinstall them. I got an email which contained the following"ĮaseUS sector by sector clone enables to clone hard drive with bad sectorsĭisk cloning software usually works for events when you upgrade hard disk from a smaller one to a larger one, or from an old one to a new one. Some threads say that cloning with bad sectors isn't possible, some say they do, I am beyond confused and would appreciate any help. When it finished, the laptop would not boot the HDD, reading that there is no operating system on the hard disk. When I check the box, the clone is reading that it will take over 1200 hours.ĬloneZilla- during its process, it read that bad sectors were encountered and it said to do a "-rescue" command to help.
XXClone- gave me a message that it cannot clone drives with bad sectors.ĪOMEI Partition- gave me a message that it cannot clone drives with bad sectors unless I check 'clone sector by sector'. Macrium Reflect- program gets 'stuck' at ~44% of a clone every time I have tried defragmenting and error checking. I have tried a number of different ways listed below and would really appreciate assistance. So that in the event that the SSD starts to fail, or I get to a point where I feel like I just need to hit the reset button and start fresh with a clean install of Windows, everything important is already on a different drive and in the cloud.I have been trying to clone a disk with bad sectors to another disk for about 2 weeks now and have had nothing but failures. I've personally been running on a dual drive setup for a long time now for the specific reason of not having to bother with cloning and whatnot since the only thing on the SSD for me is just the OS and main applications and all long term files and games go onto my HDD with only short term stuff that I'm messing with in the moment being on the SSD. So you should just probably wipe the ssd clean, then do the clone.Īnd free space shouldn't matter since that would just be free space either way no matte what on your storage. Me personally, I would just backup important files to cloud leaving all the stuff that can easily be redownloaded and installed again alone, then just doing a clean install on the SSD and reinstalling stuff.īut if you have games, a lot of them could have very different save file locations that you would have to track down. Can do a full backup and do a restore after a clean install on the SSD.īut otherwise a clone is by perfect definition a full on clone.
