Size of cloned ssd expanded after clone. Loose the purpose replacing ssd.
Hi,
I have a Lenovo 300 15 ISK laptop.
It had a 2.5 " 128 GB SSD. I decided to replace it with a new 512 GB SSD.
I bought a kingston upgrade kit:
from mr memory for a 512 GB SSD.
I connected the new SSD to the USB and followed the instructions ( seems I am not allowed to paste the link kingston provided).
Everything went smooth and I could remove the old internal one and install the new and the boot up windows and login.
So why am I posting here:
When I check "Storage" in windows it shows (ssd_upgrade1.png) that out of my new 512 GB
361 GB is suddenly reserved for system. I only have approx 31 GB free.
Prevoius SSD had 2 G out of 128 free.
And a second strange thing is (ssd_upgrade2.png) that file explorer is showing a total of128 GB and 31 GB free.
Update: Found this for the new SSD:
Device SCSI\Disk&Ven_KINGSTON&Prod_SKC600512G\4&6aa59bd&0&000000 was not migrated due to partial or ambiguous match.
Update2: This is how disc looks like ( see ssd_upgrade3.png)
Not sure what it means.
I must admit and disappointed and confused. Is there a remedy for this? I am all ears!
