[Solved] Acronis TI 2018 does not see usb connected SSD drive
I am trying to clone a laptop SATA drive to an SSD drive.
The SSD drive is connected via SATA to USB 3.0 adapter to the laptop. It is recognized in the BIOS.
I boot to Acronis from USB flash drive. When I try to clone the SATA drive, Acronis only sees the SATA drive and the Acronis flash drive.
How do I perform this clone?
Thanks

Once booted to the flash drive you may need to choose Add New Disk to initialize the SSD. I find this the case often.

Thanks for the idea. I tried that as well without success. Then I tried initializing the disk in windows, and now it is recognized from the flash drive.

Eran, glad to hear that initialising the disk resolved this issue for you, thanks for the feedback.

Thank you so much for suggesting this because I was having the exact same issue as the OP and this completely solved my very frustrating issue. Why crucial didn't put this in there little, "simple," installation video is beyond me. This is my first attempt at doing something like this and I had no clue what the second poster was suggesting. (Makes me think back to when i was a child and had to write directions to someone, who knew nothing, on how to make a peanut butter n jelly sandwich.) Thank You.
