Do you know if the free version can do what I'm trying to do right now?

I just bought a new 1TB SSD to replace a 500GB SSD because I'm running out of room. I don't want to lose anything I have on the existing smaller drive so looking to do a true copy (or clone).

Do I need to buy the version in this post or would the free version work?

The free version will do cloning.

Thanks, repped!

I tried EaseUS Todo last night and I kept running into issues. I'll try this tonight.

That's probably true. I wanted the paid version because of the ability to do incremental backups and encrypt the backups.

Someone posted this feature comparison chart in the last deal:

I been using the free version for couple of years now and its been solid solution for daily backups and occasional restore when changes needed to be undone.
I rarely see them go on sale so this is a treat and the delta restore is an interesting function that i've yet to find on any other solutions.

Yes, their free version is quite good.

The free version will work for you; either clone, or make an image to an external drive and then "restore" the image to the new drive, then expand the partition to use the whole drive.

Incrementals, Image Guard (to protect against infections and ransomware), re-deploy to new hardware and delta restore.

Macrium is simply the best! I bought it. I feel it's important to support the good software companies.

I have two SSD in my Windows 10 Pro system + others HDD that run storagespaces . Storage spaces backup is managed by windows.

For Windows running on SSD, Can this software continuously keep other SSD in sync for fail-over.

Not sure what you mean by "continuously" (it's not a RAID setup). I have Windows on my SSD and DATA on a spinner (mechanical). I have auto-scheduled Macrium to make weekly full images of my SSD and daily differential images. If something goes wrong, I can restore an image of Windows and be back up and running in minutes. (I do the similar with my data.)

Perpetual License meaning Lifetime?

It means, if you buy version 7, you get all updates for v7, always free. Your Macrium support lasts for 1 year. If/when they release a new version (8), you would likely have the option to upgrade for a reduced price. I'm pretty sure they did that a few years ago for version 6 users when v7 came out. Or, you could just stick with v7 indefinitely.
