Cloning an existing drive to a larger one
Good day Folks! I was wondering if you could help me with this problem that I'm facing. I currently have a 2TB Internal HDD. I bought a 4TB HDD to upgrade my storage. I want to clone my current drive to the larger one. I wanna know if I clone my current HDD using the clone tool, will all of the 4TB storage be utilized by True Image while creating partitions or not. I'm a little skeptical about it leaving large amounts of stoage unallocated. If anyone could explain the process in simple terms, that would be fantastic. (I read the guide on this site already but it doessn't seem to answer my question)

Bryan,
Is your current disk formatted as an MBR disk? If yes then it the format is limited to a maximum of 2TB. To make use of the full 4TB as one partition the larger drive need to be formatted as GPT.
Your statement that you want to upgrade your storage leads me to believe that this drive is a storage only drive. If it does indeed have Windows installed on it then what Steve has written applies as well.
