Followed all the steps, rebooted and the cloning doesn't happen
Hi. I have a Windows 10 Lenovo and I want to clone me 500GB HD to a new 750GB SSD. I am using a dock by InTeck. I have followed the steps to select the Source and Destination drives. When True Image 2015 asked me to reboot I did that, but nothing happened. There was no indication that cloning was taking place and my drive was not cloned. I have tried this a couple times with the same result. What am I missing or what do I do next?

Also, is this a clone dock from Inatek? If so, why even use the clone software since you have the hardware to do this natively?
The clone docks can do this completely offline without a pc, so long as you are cloning to the same size disk or larger (and you're going larger so that's just fine). Put source (original drive) in source, destination (new drive) in destination and hold the clone button for 5 seconds and the clone dock will clone the source to the destination withotu needing to bother with software or computers or anything else - all right from the dock. If you have the capability to do that, just do that.... BUT MAKE SURE you have the source and destination in the correct locations!!!!!!!!!!!!
FYI, I'd still make a full disk backup as a precaution - just in case. Who knows, maybe you have a power surge and both drives fry at the same time, or you put the source and destination in reverse.

This is good advice. I hate cloning anyway, as too much can go wrong with catastrophic consequences. But, if you must clone, make a full disk mode backup first. I'd rather have you make the backup and think it was a waste of time, then post here tomorrow saying that the clone failed and that now neither disk will boot.
