Seagate hybrid XT 750GB cloning issue

Thread needs solution

I've been using Acronis true Image home 2011 on Thinkpad X201 with Windows7. The notebook is equipped with seagate XT 750GB disk. I've cloned this 750GB disk from seagate XT 500GB when i istalled the new 750GB disk. It was good and I've been using the 750GB disk. A couple of days ago, i tried to clone this 750GB disk to new Seagate hybrid XT 750GB disk. I found that the cloned 750GB disk which cloned from 750GB doesn't work. I couldn't boot system with the new cloned one. To summarize,

1. Seagate Hybrid XT 500GB to Hybrid XT 500GB was Ok to boot
2. Seagate Hybrid XT 500GB to Hybrid XT 750GB was Ok to boot
3. Seagate Hybrid XT 750GB to Hybrid XT 750GB has issue to boot the system

In addition,
Cloning was successfully finshed.

Can you help me to make clone backup from 750GB to 750GB ?

Thanks in advance.

One of the requirements for a successful clone on the ThinkPad is that the target disk be inside the computer rther than attadched to usb external. A standard IBM dockiing station is reported as an acceptable target for cloning
Also, only target disk be attached during first boot following clone or restore.
You can also try the clone using the manual option and use the "as is" as the move option.
