NTICloning Kit | New! Version 6 of NTI Cloning Software | Best for SSD and HDD Upgrades | Software via Download | SATA-to-USB Adapter Included for 2.5" SSD and HDD

MAKE THE BIOS CHANGES BEFORE RUNNING THIS PROGRAM!I bought this cloning kit for the obvious reason: My C:\ drive was full. I had to constantly move or remove programs and/or data to clear space for updates, new programs, etc. I even extended the C:\ drive to combine with another drive. This was not recognized by some programs. Alas, what to do? During searches for solutions I stumbled on the NTI Cloning Kit. It promised an easy three step way to clone the original C:\ drive to a new larger drive. I purchased a two terabyte drive to replace the original 250 gigabyte drive. After installing the NTI disc, the program scans your computer in order to detect any possible conflicts. In my situation it found two conflicts in the BIOS. It gave specific instructions to reconcile the conflicts. Therein lies the caveat! I have always followed instructions to the letter all my life. That is generally the best way to go. Not in this case. I printed out the instructions and proceeded with the installation...the computer froze! The instructions say to start the program and it will stop to let me know to change the BIOS. When I hit the button to start the program is when the PC froze. There was nothing I could do to get a response from my PC. I called NTI.I spoke to Heather at customer support for about an hour. Heather was very thorough but we could not solve the problem as the PC was frozen despite several times attempting to reboot the system with a Windows thumb drive. I gave up for that day. The following day I spoke with my Grandson about this. He knows the workings of a computer better than I. We finally got the PC to turn on. He accessed the BIOS and made the changes specified in the program. With no prompting from me, IMMEDIATELY the NTI Cloning program continued and completed the process successfully!The moral of this long story: Make the BIOS changes BEFORE attempting to run the program.I heartily recommend the NTI Cloning Kit. It did a fantastic job.

My harddrive was failing with bad sectors. I used this cloning software to clone a new identical harddrive copying my old one. It worked great. Just switch out his and I was back in business.

This product was really really bad. I bought a brand new laptop, a new 2 TB SSD from Amazon. The new SSD was to replaced the 256 GB SSD that came with the laptop. I had the new 2 TB SSD plugged into the second empty SSD slot, partition it and set. I plugged in my USB DVD-ROM to install the software. I went through the menu selection, finally I clicked start cloning. That's where everything went down hill.It modified the Windows 10 bootloader, it rebooted into the Linux command prompt and asked me to continue to clone or abort to continue Windows boot up. I tried the first option first to clone, but then it just rebooted again to the same Linux prompt screen. This happened a few time and finally I realized something may be wrong. Note I did not do anything other than hitting the enter key to move to cloning. Then when I tried to select abort to Windows boot, it did the same thing, over and over again, in an endless infinite loop of hell.I tried search the web for forum and Youtube, people said the same thing, about the endless loop of reboot. I spoke to my laptop manufacturer support. They gave me a Microsoft post to create Windows Media Tool, I did that on another computer and booted my new laptop to it and tried every option it did not work. I finally rolled it back the system prior to the install of the NTI Echo 2019 (Note, you must do the rollback before following the below steps for it to work). It did not do a thing.So as last resort I called NTI tech support. I cannot believe they tried to direct me to their web site to register before they will respond by email. So when someone name Heather took my call and patiently listened to my story, she was able to tell me what do to, here's how I restored the Windows bootloader:1. Boot the laptop with the Windows Media Tool.2. Click troubleshoot.3. Click the command prompt4. At the command prompt, type "C:",5. Then check for the existence of the Windows directory6. Once confirmed, type "bcdboot c:\windows"7. This will rebuild the Windows boot file.8. Once rebuild, shut everything down, unplug your usb and usb dvd. Just let it boot to the C: driveI tried it again and it did the same thing to my laptop with the endless infinite reboot hell. Then I tried the above steps 1-8 but it did not get out of the infinite loop reboot hell. I found I have to rollback the system with the Windows Media Tool and roll it back to prior to the installation. Once I did that, then I was able to follow steps 1-8 to restore to Windows 10 boot.My personal opinion, don't buy this software, you are asking for trouble, in my case I had spent hours installing custom software on the SSD.Hope this helps.
