Cloning to Intel SSD with TI2014

Thread needs solution

I just had my first cloning success. Cloned Windows 8 from a 500GB Seagate HDD to an Intel 530 180GB SSD using True Image's cloning feature. It worked perfectly.

I tried first using Intel's Data Migration Software (as recommended in the instructions). Oddly enough, Intel's downloadable DMS is really an Acronis product. I got an error message stating I already had a more recent version installed, so I went to TI2014 and did the cloning from that, booted to the SSD, and it's a speed demon.

Hence, if you're cloning to an Intel SSD I'd suggest using TI instead of the recommended Data Migration Software.

Regards,
Kelly
