Tonight I bought paragon migrate to SSD that had a additional button to tick that I 'thought' would get me past the issue I had with EaseUS. I'm almost certain something isn't right with the uefi/gpt settings. If I hit continue it will just reboot and repeat. If I disable the HDD entirely in the BIOS Windows will attempt a 'repair' and then it brings me to a menu to continue to Win 8.1, reboot,etc. It will start to boot off the SSD (I can see the blue access lights on the USB connector showing activity) and then it will switch over to the HDD half way through the boot up. What's interesting to me is my OS Partition on the HDD shows (Boot, Page File,ect) But my SSD OS Partition does NOT reflect this information.Īnd here's a shot of how the EaseUS cloning software that I tired first.Īfter using this software to clone the entire disk I attempted to boot off the SSD by choosing it during the boot sequence. Last night I attempted to clone the entire disk (Including the 300MB uefi partition, 900 MB recovery partition and of course the primary OS partition.)

Hi, I recently bought a Samsung 840EVO 240GB SSD to upgrade my mechanical HDD on my asus x202e laptop.
