Failing to Clone
I have am running Windows 10 pro 64 bit with Acronis 11 True Image Home. The computer OS is loaded onto a 500Gig Samsung Solid State hard drive. The destination hard drive is a 500Gig Western Digital Spinning hard drive.
I have tried numerous times to clone the solid state drive using Acronis but keep getting the same error "Unable to write disks sector 2937872". The error occurs after the computer restarts and is in a black screen an no OS is loaded. I have tried to do the close in following manner.
1.) Western digital hard drive partitioned as NTFS. Acronis asks to delete the partions
2.)Western digital hard drive not partitioned. Acronis then performs the partition.
3.) Western digital hard drive scrubbed using Acronis DOD method taking roughly 6 hours to scrub then telling Acronis to do the clonse and partition the hard drive.
The 3 different methods listed above yeild the same error. Can someone tell me why I cannot clone the hard drive? is the Western digital hard drive bad (roughly 7 years old)?
Thank you Trevor
