Hello Koray,

I fully understand your intention to clone hard disk to CF but I must say “Clone Disk” option wasn’t designed to do so. Moreover as workaround to clone failure operation is to detach or disable card readers from the computer. See respective KB article

 You can successfully clone one internal drive to another internal drive using “Clone Disk” option. As workaround to your issue I may recommend you create full drive backup to CF and then restore the entire system in case it failures.
