How to Clone Windows 11 to SSD free with larger storage space?
- Sep 24, 2024
Cloning Windows OS to new SSD without data loss is a very challenging task. Unfortunately, there is no official feature available on Windows 11 for doing this. I have spent three ways to finally find out a working way to do this. If you want to do this safely and comfortably, please follow the step in this guide:

P.S. It only took me one hour to fully complete the migration (1TB data to new SSD), which is quite impressive!
AndrewJenkins Now, many SSD vendors provide their own disk cloning tools, often included as part of their SSD management software. These tools are typically designed to make the process of migrating your data from an old drive to a new SSD as easy and seamless as possible. You can use the official software to clone Windows 11 to SSD with large storage for free. Here are some examples:
- Samsung Data Migration
- Kingston SSD Manager (Clone Feature)
- Western Digital (WD) Acronis True Image
- Intel Data Migration Software
These tools are optimized for use with the vendor's specific SSD models for better compatibility and smooth operation. However, These disk cloning tools are typically only compatible with SSDs from the same vendor. If you are cloning to a different brand of SSD, you might need to use a third-party disk cloning software.
