Restore disk image to a smaller size SSD with TI2010
Situation:
The HDD of my laptop (Seagate 750GB) is damaged and causes my system to crash frequently. HDtune finds a lot of damaged sectors on the disk so I need to replace it. I intend to replace by a 500GB SSD.. I have a disk image available that is made with True Image Home 2010.
The image is made of the following situation:
My question is how to restore this image on the smaller SSD?
When I boot from the recovery disk, TI 2010, and I select the whole disk to be restored to the new disk, there is no way to tell TI that he has to reduce the size of the C: and D: partitions. i do have this option if I also select C: or D:, but can I achieve my objective then?
Do I need to restore C: and D: sequentialy (and reduce the size of the partitions)? In what order? And what to do with the MBR? I assume that the partition table will represent the old situation (for the 750GB disk).
Any help is very appreciated!
