HDD image onto SSD disk

Thread needs solution

Hi,

Just a quick question - is it possible to put an image created from an HDD drive using Acronis True Image Home 2010 onto an SSD drive?

Yes, but if it has to create or resize partitions, it will not align it a way that is the best for SSD. If you create the partition first in windows, its alignment will be kept.

Just to clarify, If I create a partition first, and then restore an Acronis Image back onto that partition, then that will work?

Do I need Windows in order to create that partition or could I use another Disk Administration application.

I have both Acronis Disk Director 10 and Paragon Partition Manager 11 Professional Edition, both usable from a separate boot CD.

Thank you for your helph.

Because of Disk sector alignment, create the partition using your Windows 7 Disk Management.
