Man, I just wanted to say I was reading through your description and you've put so much effort into it; AND, you're quite honest and open with what you put in there in terms of affiliates etc. Honestly, it's refreshing to see that kind of professionalism in a video description. I was on my lunch yesterday and was looking through some YT vids about putting Windows 10 onto an ssd, and saw your video. And then this evening I accidentally saw it again and so I decided to watch it through. Very helpful.
ok, this is easily one of the most detailed drive swapping videos on youtube. thank you so much! you focused on what is important and that is so great.
I just finished copying my entire system drive into a brand new SSD. Awesome tutorial, worked like a charm and without a single hitch. All partitions, files, etc. preserved as if nothing had ever happened
If you are doing this and u see a paywall, delete the application and get the older version of this same application which is linked in the description of the video (in an article thing). The older version is completely free and worked for me
The best tech video I have seen in years. No fluff, clear and understandable. U even included links to the items used to create the video! Stellar performance sir! Keep up the exceptional work.
Over a year later and the only step that has changed involves the Minitool Parition Wizard's updated interface. The transition to and installation of my new SSD was flawless, and I couldn't be happier. Thank you so much for your help!
thanks for this worked a treat, took 3 hours 20 minutes for 200gb filled hard drive to transfer on to the new ssd for anyone wondering with a mixture of pics, documents and music
a key point every one of these videos have not put in is if your laptop fails to boot from your new SSD - ensure you go back to the program partition wizard - >> click on the new ssd disk -> Redbuild MBR (on new disk) ->> Apply. After that the boot up sequence worked - nobody else has put this on their videos - I found it on a forum
May I just tell you that your tutorial was a perfect presentation of how to change from one HD to another. I wanted to go from 240GB to 1T and you made it seems so simple. I hesitated for quite a while, but finally bit the bullet and the results are a perfect transition. Thank you so much!!
@@enohbajramovski211 He added a link in the description that says (UPDATE). Click on that and there will be a link to download the free version before they changed it.
like somebody already said you even included the sounds of a borken hdd for people qho don't know, it's really helpful coming from someone whos hdds has broken twice
Being from India, I find your accent really, really great. Well that's that and your videos are very informative and methodical. I literally just installed a new ssd in my laptop. I found your content really helpful.
VIEWERS: If the laptop doesn't recognize the SSD attached to your USB, dont panic. You just need to initialize it in Disk Mannagement first. That includes formatting, assigning a drive letter, etc.
I've successfully copied drives and am now running on the SSD system BUT now the computer will no longer MAP external drives connected via USB. It recognizes them by sound connect and it shows up for a disconnect icon BUT I can not see the drive letter being assigned to it so I can not open it. How do I fix this??? I have tried removing and restoring USB driver; I tried all the ports with the same result, I tried running hardware and usb repair with no change..... wth??????????
Man O Man!!! About 6 videos Ive watched and this 1 is the one I needed! ... I thank you so very very much for your time, effort and the details you smashed in here... DETAILED STEP BY STEP! Thanks, Appreciated!
Hardly anybody is this concise! Especially since so many people think they have to act crazy to get more views. Thanks for this great vid. You even address a lot of potential misconceptions or things that could go wrong.
Thank you so much!!! Unlike most HD cloning software that claim to be free, this tutorial demonstrates a legitimate free functioning software to get the job done very easily. Most other free software only allows you to clone very small unrealistic drive capacities and / or does not allow anything other than identical direct cloning with no partitions whatsoever. This tutorial was flawless in helping me swap out my laptops end of life HD to a new SSD. Thanks again!
There is one detail that you didn't mention. That the partition software recreates each partition from the original hdd as normal (non-hidden) partition. I followed these steps and now I have these extra drives in Windows Explorer for partitions that were previously hidden (e.g. recovery drive, etc). I rewatched your video and saw you had the same result but glossed right over the fact.
I got a lot of “failed to read disk” notifications, but that’s probably because I had some corrupted data on my old hdd. This video was extremely helpful, thank you!
I was all ready to go and just when I thought I was a click away from migrating my OS to my new SSD, I found out that the new "Free version" of Minitool does not do this unless you go pro. Great video though.
This worked! Just note it's free to download but won't start until you pay for it, but it works where nothing else did. Thanks for the tip on Pro licences too.
Thank you for this! This helped me understand why cloning the HDD to the SSD was so important and your explanations made me confident enough to install an SDD myself. I’m tech savvy, but not enough to do my own computer repair skills. Thanks again!
Amazing video and very professionally done, thank you very much. Unfortunately it seems that the MiniTool Partition Wizard wont allow you to clone a SSD for free anymore, real pity. I tried and at 13:09, where you have to choose between A or B and click Next>, you are diverted to a webpage where you have to buy the Pro version. It's fair i guess, I am a one time user so I will search for an open source app.. Thanks again for the very professional tutorial.
@Velqua yes I did, I used Macrium Software. Its free for a month, but you can buy it for about 60 bucks and own the software. It works like a charm, did three clones.
You are the best! You always explain everything that one can think of, and you do that in a very logical and very clear way. Thank you for your great instructional videos!
@@EasyTechs You are generous to post all these great instructions! Thanks to your video about how to upgrade Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, I did it without any problem, and I now have Windows 10 on my older laptop, which I thought was not possible. So, now I will use this video to clone my HDD to my new SSD (arriving tomorrow) and replace my HDD with SSD. I already sent your video about Windows upgrade to several of my friends, because it was the best among 15-20 videos I viewed on TH-cam. So, thanks for your generosity!
A GOLDEN tip for any one who has an issue with the external ssd doesn't show up,, just simply don't plug it all, enter the half of it and you will be ok.
Update: this still works but you need to have at least a professional license because migrating the OS using Minitool partition wizard is not for free anymore. Still, great video. :)
Unfortunately, the software is not free anymore. They allow you to install and go through all the steps for free, but as soon as you click finish they ask for $59 dollars to unlock "advanced features" before it clones.
Thanks alot, great for replacing failing or dated HDDs. I've used minitool partition wizard to expand partitions live without losing the volume and didn't know about the migration feature. Great product to support if you're one of those that value paid license software on your PC.
I wanted to follow ALL your method. But somehow, in the partition wizard program, to clone my disk I had to pay for some reason. So I used Macrium. After completing the clone process, I did not changed the Boot Sequence in BIOS, like you said. But other tutorials in YT said I had to. Yet I proceed to just swap it, and it works so far. Thank you!
This is really helpful lesson. Thank you. I have a question. Is possible to use it with an external HDD too or it's only with internal HDD or SDD? Let me know please. Thank you again.
So you don't need to reactivate the Windows(license key) if you clone the old disk to new disk and use the same Computer/Laptop? I need help, for clarification. Thank you.
Yep, the signprint of your hardware with you licence key was embed into your OS, and if you clone it AND install the new disk in the same computer, it's ok and you wont reactivate your licence...
Thanks man! I successfully cloned my HDD to SSD. A little advice for those who are unsuccessful to do the process, first, download the old version, in my case the 10.2 same exact version in this tutiorial. Second, turn off your wifi/internet before installing so that it will not automatically detect the new version which is not free. After that, just follow the process and everything will be fine!
What a clean, precice and to the point video Sir, I just wish people make video like this instead of time wasting bable. Liked and subscribed,thanks a million.
daniel Jimenez if you keep old hard drive hooked up to motherboard you’d then have to go to bios change boot priority then reboot it’ll allow you to format old drive as it will be now running on new drive hope this helps!
JimmyJamyShamy the same process as this except it won’t automatically change the drive boot order have to manually change it in the bios settings, unless you unplug the old drive and you keep the new drive only it should auto detect hope this helps!
It actually worked. This is my first time changing a component from my laptop and I was a little scared and skeptical since this video is 3 years old, but it's still useful. The new ssd has significantly improved my laptop speed. Thank you so much sir for this tutorial, it has indeed helped me!

This may sound silly my old HDD is 1tb and only has 370gb filled. I have a 128ssd lying around and I only want to migrate windows only and the application says my ssd is too small? I didn't think windows on its own is over 128gb.. I just want to know if I am doing something wrong?

Use MiniTool Partition Wizard and change drive letter to none on partition that you want to hide.
You created a problem where there is none? By default it does that it doesn’t matter whether it shows or not it still stays partitioned 💀

This may sound silly my old HDD is 1tb and only has 370gb filled. I have a 128ssd lying around and I only want to migrate windows only and the application says my ssd is too small? I didn't think windows on its own is over 128gb.. I just want to know if I am doing something wrong?
In that case use the window backup utility, which backs up your windows and essential files only to a recovery image
I don't know if this is just me but this isn't free
Thanks for this very informative video. I had no problem installing my new ssd after watching
Installing my new ssd today and excited to see the speed difference
