Manufacture's Recovery partition
I plan to move from a 500GB to a 1TB hard drive. The 500GB drive contains the PC manufacture's recovery partition (approx. 20GB) located at the end of the drive.
How do I maintain not only the size but also insure the recovery partition is still functional. The first time I tried moving from the 500GB drive to the 1TB drive the size of recovery partition doubled from 20 to 40GB. Will the recovery partition with its new size still be functional on the new drive?

ATI 2015 has a completely different interface and there is no option that I can see prevent Acronis from either automatically changing the partition size or to tell it to keep the exact same size as stored in the image when recovering to a larger drive.

Your best chance of success is to do the restore when booted from the user created TI Recovery CD as per the referenced guide.
