Cloning a Mac drive with a boot camp partition
Hello,
I read on the Acronis site that Acronis True Image 2015 can back up the boot camp partition on Mac.
On my Mac OSx 10.10.1 I have a boot camp partition with Windows 7 (64bit).
I need to sobstitute my Mac HDD with a new SSD one.
Is it possible to clone the HDD using Acronis True Image 2015 ?
What are the procedure steps to clone the disk on Mac ?
Thank you,
Davide

I have cloned a Mini Mac 1TB 5400RPM to a 1TB 7200RPM. On the disk from the Mini Mac there was OSX and Bootcamp with windows 8. I did it from a Windows 8 PC with disk clone.
It went well and a booted the Mini Mac with the new 7200rpm.
Windows does not boot but OSX boots fine.
It does not seem like I can fix the boot or rebuild the BCD.
I tried to reinstall Windows but I can not us the partition for install. It seems like the disk is a GPT disk and not a MBR and therefore it will not install.
Is there a diffident when I clone with Disk Clone or Boot Media?

Nope, I am pretty sure cloning a disk with BC on it is not supported by Acronis TI (and I am too lazy to search their info for that).
Last time I did that with TI 2013 it had the same problem as you see now. I then used Paragon Hard Drive Suite and it worked.
