Acronis for crucial: Not enough free Diskspace with 163GB free space when cloning

Thread needs solution

Hello all,

I have recently aquired a new 1000GB SSD from Crucial, a MX500. I want to clone my built-in 1000GB HDD to it, the perating system Is on an entirely different drive so I just need to migrate the data, no OS. I connected the new SSD wirh a USB-SATA adapter to my PC and I downloaded Acronis True Image for Crucial as I was instructed to do by Crucials manual.

I initialised the Active Cloning tool and could select my source disk and my destination disk. But when I was supposed to start the cloning I got the error message "You need another 126,3 MB of free disk space in the target hard dive to complete the operation with the current filter. Pease exclude more files or folders, then try again." I tried excluding folders and files with more than 100GB worth of data, but it still wouldnt do through. Whenever I clicked "next", I got the error message "Failed to move the selcted data. Make sure that your new hard drive is not smaller than your old one and that your partitions do not contain errors. You can check for errors and correct them using a special utility".

How am I to proceed? I deleted data, I excluded it in the cloning software and I even shrunk my HDD. Any ideas?

Thanks a lot in Avance!
