Joseph,

Please see KB document: 34881: True Image 2013 by Acronis: Cloning Basic Disks which has information on what you are trying to do.

It is recommended that the target drive for cloning should be installed in the system in place of the source HDD drive, and connect the source drive via USB.

It is also recommended to perform the clone using the Acronis bootable Rescue Media rather than from within Windows.
