Cloning Surface Pro 7
Hello Acronis peoples
I have been using Acronis for imaging laptops and Surface Pros. The latest version I was using was True Image 2016. I discovered this version was not compatible with the Surface Pro 7. I downloaded the True Image 2020 trial version, however I am unable to use the cloning tool unless I purchase. I did, however, create a usb media builder to try on a Surface Pro 7. It appears it is not working, nothing is booting up, just the spinning status wheel with the Windows logo. I'm looking for some feedback on this or should I look at other applications that will be compatible with this device.
Thank you,
Joette

Joette,
If your Surface Pro 7 uses the new BGA PCIe SSD then you will not be able to follow Steve's advice for cloning. To date there are only add in PCIe cards for PC's to use a BGA drive.
My advice would be to create a full disk backup of the disk which can then be restored to another like disk.
