Removable disks may not have started at the moment
Trying to clone a 256GB M.2 GPT disk to 256GB SSD GPT. When I reboot and Acronis starts, a minute passes and this error pops up: "One of more of your removable disks may not have started at the moment. Click YES to wait for full startup of the devices....." I click YES to wait but the message pops up again after a minute. I click NO or CANCEL and system reboots.....cannot get a clone disk.
I have tried the SSD on SATA, and on USB, same popup.

Ray,
I believe your problem is caused by the M.2 drive not being recognized by the Linux version after reboot. Suggest you do a search on M.2 and you can read about the issues with M.2.
There are 2 ways to proceed. You can create a WinPE rescue disk and add the drivers for the M.2 drive. Or your could perform a disk mode backup of the M.2 drive and restore that image to the SSD. To create the backup, you would use Disks & Partitions, select the full partition list, then select the drive, which should select all partitions. Picture 1 below shows the short partition list and picture 2 shows the full partition list...use the full partition list.
Performing a backup & restore in this manner is equivalent to a clone. Many of the MVPs do not perform clones. They use this backup & restore method. Note, the backup must be saved to another drive, not the SSD.
Hope this helps.
