Make sure the target drive is larger than the source drive.
Important notes before getting started:
1. The target (destination) drive must be large enough to store all the data from the source drive. For example, if you're cloning a 1TB HDD with 500GB of data, your SSD should have at least 500GB of free space.
2. During the cloning process, you'll have the option to resize partitions, which is particularly important when cloning to a smaller drive. Many cloning tools can automatically adjust partitions to fit the new drive.
Disk cloning is a highly effective way to move data between drives, perform backups, or recover systems after hardware failure. And this is true for cloning hdd to ssd with Windows 11. It's a time-saving method compared to reinstalling everything from scratch.
