Cloning boot drive

[mitchpman13]

Hey guys I'm in need of a new ssd for a boot drive on this computer. The boot ssd is a ocz vertex 2 64gb and has about 400mb of free space remaining. I was going to buy a new mushkin 120gb drive just for something to not run out of space. I was wondering if Acronis true image 2015 would be able to clone my current ssd so everything would load just fine and not have to relocate files and such.

I would use partition managing software like partition wizard or partition master to do copies like that

you should never clone to an SSD

it can cause lots of problems, and you will have to reinstall everything anyway

 

dont be lazy and take the time to do things properly the first time, you will a void lots of trouble in the future

The reason I was wanting to use a clone software over just reinstalling was that I have programs that are older versions and each time that I've had to upgrade them I run into compatibility issues. This is hopefully just a quick patch to fix the limited space that I keep having to manage.
