Need best proceedure to replace HD in Win 7 Pro
This is my first time using this product. Your suggestions are appreciated.
I need to replace a 350GB SSD with a 1TB SSD in a Dell Optiplex pc running Win 7 Pro. the Pc only has 8 Gigs of free space so disk space is a problem. I've purchased Acronis Backup Advanced 11.7 as a download but have not installed it yet.
I have the 1TB SSD ready to install but need the safest mething of total image backup and restore so I can disconnect the 350 GB SSD, plug in the 1TB SSD and boot up into Windows as normal.
Please provide the best proceddure based on this situation.
Thanks,
Tony

Hello TG,
Welcome to Acronis user forums! I'd recommend you taking the full backup of all partitions under a bootable media. Thus you can avoid any OS or third-party applications related issues. After the backup is created validate it to make sure the backup is not corrupted. Then you can restore it to the new drive. Here you'll find detailed instructions.
Thank you,
