Cloning HDD question

Hi, I've got a 13" Macbook 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with OSX 10.4 and I want to upgrade my HDD. I already know what drive I want, but my question lies in my means to the end. I understand I can clone my drive with disk utility (from the bootup disk) or super duper to an external drive. My current external drive does not fit my macbook, and the new drive does not have an external enclosure. Won't need the enclosure, I just wanted to save money. Can I clone my macbook drive to my external drive, then install my new drive in the macbook, and clone from the external to the new drive I just installed? It sounds simple enough, but I wanted to be sure. Also, which program would be easier with that extra step, if either? Once this is complete I plan to upgrade to Snow Leopard.

Yes you can clone to/from your existing external. Don't forget the step of preparing your new internal HD by formatting it Mac Extended (Journaled) with a GUID Partition Table.
I think SuperDuper! is easier and more user friendly. You can use the free/trial version for what you want to do.
If you have any more questions about the procedure, perhaps the answer is in [This Tutorial|http://www.macinstruct.com/node/130].

New T530: same boot time after cloning HDD to SSD - what to do next to optimize performance?

Hi,
This is my very first post here so bear with me if I have not observed any guidelines.
After I got a new T530 from Lenovo (i5-3230M, 8G RAM 1DIMM, 500GB 7200rpm HDD, 1920x1080, 16GB Micro SSD SATA3, NVIDIA Optimus with 1GB), I swapped the DVD burner with the 500GB HDD and put a 128GB Samsung 840 Pro as my primary drive. I cloned all HDD contents to the SSD and removed all stuff in the HDD (I don't have a Windows 7 disk that's why I didn't do a clean install on the SSD). After these changes, I found my boot time to still be 30 seconds - which I guess is quite slow for an SSD main drive.
I've read up a fair bit on the Lenovo Community and the ThinkPad forum for solutions but have not found a conclusive answer to this problem. I guess I just want some advice from experienced users on what to do next after cloing the HDD to the SSD so that I can optimize the SSD's performance.
1) I found the 16GB Micro SSD SATA3 is named "Lenovo_Recovery (Q". As I don't have a Windows 7 installation disk, is it possible for me to perform a clean install on my SSD C: Drive from the Recovery?
2) If recovery is not possible, I am thinking of removing some of the bloatware(Corel burner, Nitro Pro, and many ThinkVantage utilities). But I also read somewhere that simply removing them does not help much (as opposed to a clean install). Is there anything Lenovo software worth saving (power manager maybe?)
To be sure both my TRIM and AHCI are enabled. I welcome and am grateful for inputs of other advice outside the above two questions: for example whether I should disable paging files or set paging files to the 500GB HDD disk; whether I should create a RAM disk, whether I should delete or shift system retore files, or whether I should change locations for certain temporary files.
Many thanks for your input

You're already getting detailed advice here. I'm just chiming it to say that the above doesn't sound quite right.
Lenovo_Recovery (Q) is normally a partition on the main drive and contains the recovery image. It wouldn't be on the micro SSD - AFAIK. The recovery image contains an as-shipped image of your working partitions. Even if you used it, you wouldn't get what's considered a "clean" install (from MS media and without the Lenovo additions). You'd get the OS as shipped - modified and added-to by Lenovo.
That micro SSD is probably part of the reason you don't see much difference in your boot times. It caches frequently-used files and (at least once trained or pre-loaded) sort of simulates running from an SSD. Without it your original boot time would probably have been longer.
[edit] Did you make recovery media from your HDD before removing it from the main bay. I'm all for clean installs (how I run my T420) but that might be handy to have down the road some time. Also you might want to pull a copy of SWTOOLS (I think that's what it's called these days...) and save it on DVD or someplace. There are a few things you can't download from the Lenovo site (3rd-party multimedia apps, for example) that you might want to add to a clean install later. The installers are in SWTOOLS (or whatever it's called....)
FWIW,

New cloned hdd is really slow

Hi,
PC model: HP Pavilion A1210.uk.Motherboard: MSI MS-7184/AmethystM-GL6E
I have recently had to clone my HDD as the old disk progressively had more and more errors causing chkdsk to kick-in on boot up and blue screens during operation. The old disk was a Western Digital 500Gb SATA II about 3 years old and before the errors worked fine. New clone is a SATA III Seagate 500Gb disk. It was cloned using Macrium. However, this new disk has hopeless data access speeds resulting in the PC running at a crawl. I have checked transfer speeds of the two disks using HD Tune. Depending on the file size the difference in rate is 100 fold.
Is it likely that the new disk is not working properly? Or is it a driver/motherboard problem that cannot read/write the disk at the necessary speed? The BIOS states the access protocol is UDMA 5.
Thanks for any thoughts, tipshorn-al

Please provide the name of the operating system your computer is running. Also provide the full model number of the new hard drive or indicate if it is an AF "Advanced Format" drive. Please see "Identifying an Advanced Format Hard Drive"
If it is an AF drive, please see "Preparing Advanced Format Hard Drive for Windows" and "Improving the Performance of an Advanced Format Hard Drive" for more information on the subject and possible steps to be taken to resolve your issue.
My guess is that you have an AF drive and are running Windows XP...XP may not support this drive as XP is unaware of the AF specification.

DL380 gen8 cloning hdd

Hi ,
I'm sorry if I posted wrong place because I didn't find any related topic what I am facing.
I have dl230 gen8 20+ servers and planning to install win server 2008 r2. What I am plan is to create master hdd that install everything ( drivers and software ,etc..) and make cloning for the rest servers using ghost.
After I created master hdd , I did clone secondary hdd but it failed to boot up
I tried on same server that was done master hdd. Master hdd can go to windows ( boot up). only secondary ( cloned) fails.
Here is some info of my master hdd .
logical drive - 160 GB (RAID 0) default array config
Does it relate Array configuration ? As I know , without any logical drive on server it can not make OS installation. Right ?
If I can not clone , I have to install individually OS on 20+ server
I appreciate any reply..
Thanks
All the best

Upgrading HDD question

I'm new to Macs, but I plan on replacing my stock 250gb HDD with a 320gb, 7200rpm hdd. The OS on my MAC is still pretty much stock, just downloaded all updates. So I have a few questions:
1. Is it worth cloning at this point? Or should I just go ahead and start from scratch with the replacement HDD?
2. Do I have to format my replacement HDD (pulling from a Dell), or will the OSX installer take care of all that?
3. I have heard that the MacPros do not "feel" the same or as well put together after it is taken apart to put in a new HDD. Is this true?
I think that's it for now. Thanks.

Well...I've heard that there's about a 40% performance gain according to some benchmarks, and the main program that I'll use will be Logic Studio to do music production. In order to run effects and many tracks, I'll be needing all the power I can get.
However, I'm unfamiliar with Logic (I'm coming from PC's Cakewalk Sonar), and if I won't see that much gain, it might not be worth the trouble.
Are you familiar with Logic?
Thanks again.
I use logic every day. Keeps me from make bad NFL bets (well 8-8 last week so not so much) and getting run over by the streetcars, and petting tigers.
If your job is running benchmarks then I guess that is critical. Using the mac as intended, e.g. a computer these things fall by the wayside as pretty unimportant.
Ex-Windowers are big on tinkering all the time, I guess because the whole Windows experience was so awful, tweaks became a part of life to survive, vs. just using the computer as a tool.

Aperture - library management and external HDD question

Hi all.
I have just graduated from a point and shoot to a Panasonic GH2 (love it), and have now begun using Aperture 3 rather than iPhoto on my early 2008 MB Pro to manage my photos going forwards. Of course, I’ve now discovered that Aperture is quite the resource hog and so it’s upgrade time (darn, “have” to buy a new ‘puter!). I have a 2011 MB Pro (2.3Ghz i7 with 512GB SSD) on order and 8GB of DDR 3 arriving from Crucial. Since I have this brand-new-computer opportunity I want to make sure I’m organising things properly before I start transferring things across, and so have a few Aperture-related questions. (In case it’s relevant, I’m shooting in RAW+JPEG. So far I’ve been using RAW as master, but have since learnt it might be a good idea to import JPG as master and switch to RAW only when I need to make corrections, so I’ll probably do that going forwards.)
I understand that moving to referenced masters on an external drive might be a good idea and save me precious SSD-space. To that end, questions are:
1. Can anyone recommend a companion external HDD for Aperture and the 2011 MBPro? I guess either FW800 or Thunderbolt are the way to go. The Lacie Little Big Disk Thunderbolt might be an option but is this overkill for Aperture masters or would FW800 be sufficient. I’ve also seen the G-Tech G-RAID mini, Lacie Rugged – thoughts welcome.
Key requirements are a) as compact as possible, and b) bus powered.
2. What kind of performance can I expect if I go down this route? Is there going to be significant loading/processing delay whenever I switch to a new image?
3. How will Aperture cope with (eg) syncing photos to iPad / iPhone if the drive containing the masters isn’t connected? Put another way, are JPG renders saved in the Aperture library (i.e. on my MBP SSD) or with the masters?
Thanks in advance to anyone who responds!

OWC (an excellent vendor) has the Elite Pro Mini hard drive that meets your specs:
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/firewire/EliteALmini/eSATA_FW800_FW400_USB
Thiunderbolt drives are not mainstream yet but eSATA and FW800 both work well. The multiple connection methods of OWC drives allow very desirable flexibility when purposing/repurposing drives.
Note too that the MBP optical drive can be replaced with up to a 1-TB hard drive DIY or OWC will do it for you. That is what I am doing with my 17" 2011 MBP.
2. Is there going to be significant loading/processing delay whenever I switch to a new image?
SSD latency is orders of magnitude less than hard drives. Switching to a new image even fast hard drives with fast connectivity add significant latency delay. To avoid that what I do is leave (Referenced) Masters on the SSD until all editing is complete (which may be a few weeks). Only then do I use Aperture to change the Referenced Masters location from the SSD to a large external drive.
What kind of performance can I expect if I go down this route?
With Masters on the SSD and 8 GB RAM imports/exports are very fast and all Aperture editing is essentially instant. You will be pleased!
Suggested workflow steps for Referenced Masters:
• Use a FW card reader or MBP slot to copy to a file folder on the SSD (never directly into Aperture or any other images management app). With fast camera cards copy times are quick, but cheap slow cards can slow this step down a lot.
• Eject and physically disconnect the card reader.
• Back up that file folder on external drive(s).
• Only after backup is complete, reformat the camera card in-camera.
• Import images into Aperture from the file folder on the SSD.

Cloning Hdd to SSD boot drive and what happens with Music/Logic Plugins

Hi, my computer is a mid-2012 Mac Pro 12 Core
It's a great computer but I'm considering upgrading my main boot drive (WD Caviar Black 1TB HDD) to a 1tB Samsung EVO 840 SSD drive (I'm using a sonnet tempo PCI card to mount an SSD that holds audio at the moment and will add another SSD for the boot drive I'm referring to) so I just had a question - if I clone the HDD to the new SSD, what happens with things like licenses for my audio plugins, such as Native Instruments Komplete, programs by IKMultemedia. programs that use an ILOK such as Steven Slate Plugins and also, WAVES plugins? Will this info all carry across to the new SSD drive or do you think I'll need to reauthorise some things? I have all the serials etc so this shouldn't be an issue, but just wondered.
Any help would be appreciated as it feels like quite a big step in that it's my main system drive!
Thanks in advance
Sam

CCC is excellent. If it doesn't work then sure, just always have a safety net of your system that is untouched.
Also, after a clean install, CLONE it!
And then use Setup Assistant. Migration Assistant.
Clone of the system can go on sparse disk images too so you don't have to partition (should have at least one though) and you can have clone from different stages and versions: 10.9.4, without Setup Assistant, migrated, full loaded with all your apps. Multiple versions.
CCC is designed to make a working bootable copy of a system so you can move the system to another boot device like hdd and SSDs without the worry.
But I think we were talking about a system that did not see a clean install of Mountain Lion or Mavericks so it is over due for one!

Cloned HDD, Now Boot Issues. Help Please....

Hello All and Merry Christmas!
UPDATE: The "restore points" utility is fixed. I inadvertantly checked "Toshiba System Volume" to have restore points and apparently it is not supposed to be checked.  After correcting that, the system will now create restore points for the (C drive.
I cloned my Dad's hard drive (Toshiba Satellite L-355D-S7825, running Vista Home Premium) with use of EaseUs Disk Copy and am having some issues. Mainly, at this moment, it shows no previous restore points nor will it let me create one due to error message, "The volume change journal is being deleted. (0x8007049A)". If you can help me correct this then great, otherwise read on for full details.
1) I cloned the Toshiba drive(250gb) to an external usb connected WD drive (250gb). The WD drive is fairly new and has only been used for backups. Anyhow, the computer rebooted before I could swap drives so the new WD drive wouldn't boot upon installing it. Next...
2) I ran the clone process again, this time with the WD HDD installed in the laptop and the original Toshiba HDD as the usb external. Cloning from the external Toshiba drive to the installed WD drive, btw.
This worked fine as the newly installed WD drive booted up and contained all files including OS. However, it seemed to run warmer, so I decided to reinstall the original Toshiba drive. I just wanted a backup drive in case the original Toshiba drive ever failed...
However, the computer wouldn't then boot up with the Toshiba drive and upon re-installing the WD drive, it didn't even recognize a drive was installed?
3) I was able to run a rescue disk to get the laptop to boot with the original Toshiba drive. As noted though, it shows no restore points (should be about 10) and I'm unable to create one. If however, I connect the external WD drive via USB, it then lists all the original restore points?
Advice please,
Ralph

SATA HDD question

Hi ppl
Quick question.
When I built my PC I used a HDD with a normal P-ATA connection with the IDE cable.
I am building a PC for my friend and was wondering if I should get a SATA drive.
R they rly that much faster or is it just a gimick?
Also when u install one for the first time and boot up is the SATA drive automatically recognised like a normal P-ATA drive.
Sorry new to this. Thanks for your help
SAspaz

Hey again
Umm alright I dont rly mind if I get either of the drive now. Just a quick question. When I built my rig I just attached the P-ATA HDD using a normal IDE cable and then when I booted I just installed windows xp via CD etc and it just detected my IDE HDD was there.
Now if I built the new PC with a SATA drive and I connect the SATA port and the power to the drive and boot up the PC. Will it automatically recognise the HDD and I can install windows normally or wot. Is there anything I would have to do differently for SATA compared the PATA
Cheers guys. Noob wen it comes to the SATA drives.

Adding second HDD questions

I see this in the manual--
Supports the following double hard drive
configurations:
● 2 TB: (1 TB, 5400 rpm, 12.5 mm × 2)
● 1500 GB: (750 GB, 7200 rpm, 9.5 mm × 2)
● 1500 GB: (750 GB, 5400 rpm, 9.5 mm × 2)
● 1 TB: (500 GB, 5400 rpm, 9.5 mm × 2)
Does that mean that if I have a 750 gb 5400 rpm drive that it will only support another exact same drive? or can I add a 1tb drive @ 7200 rpm for second drive? Thanks!!
This question was solved.

Hi,
Yes, you can add a 1Tb 7200rpm HDD in the second drive bay.

Windows Not Genuine after cloning HDD to SSD

After cloning an HP OEM installation (that originally had the HP OEM activation) from the original HDD to a new SSD, Windows started popping up with the Windows not genuine message.
Windows DOES claim that it's activated.
What I've done is:
http://windows.microsoft.com/is-IS/windows/help/genuine/product-key#T1=tab01
and changed the product key to use the key from the COA sticker on the system. This didn't work.
As an Run As Administrator CMD prompt,
slmgr.vbs -upk
reboot
slmgr.vbs -ipk {<var>ProductKey from COA sticker</var>}
Still no joy, still comes up showing activated and not genuine.

Cloning HDD to SSD on IdeaPad S210 Touch Windows 8.1

Hello to all!!
I recently buy a SSD Transcend SSD340 to my notebook, I did dowload a cloning software from trascend web page, but, did not work, I tryied AOMEI but this was not recognizing the notebook's HDD, finally I download free for home users:
DriveClone ® 10.02
http://www.farstone.com/software/drive-clone.php
and worked, it recognized the notebook HDD and SDD conected via USB, notebook's HDD is 500GB size and SSD is 256GB, so I had to back up certaily data to make sure HDD clone to SSD and fit.
now I need to install it..
Cheers!!

You could try using CloneZilla as described here.
I have only used CloneZilla, but I personally haven't had any issues with it as of yet.
What is the exact model and product number of the notebook?
NOTE: Do not provide the serial number.

Time Machine w/ external HDD question

Hello all! Just started using Time Machine with an external HDD. So, here is my question, if my HDD (USB) is not attached for a week, and Time Machine is running, will I get some sort of error message letting me know that the backup volume cannot be found? Also, when I reattach, say one week later, will Time Machine pick up and backup those items over the past week? Please advise. Thanks!

Time machine might give you an error but its very unlikely. And as for unplugging the drive, yes time machine will pick up were it left off and update the changes you have made. I usually only hook mine up every couple weeks cause I don't make very many changes.

Cloned HDD and replaced but now getting permissions issues.

I'm receiving that error message. BACKSTORY: I was experiencing general slowdowns when using various applications and sometimes odd behavior when browsing the internet with Chrome (this site is untrusted errors that wouldn't replicate after starting a new session sometimes, facebook, my bank, sometimes even google.com) I suspected that my HDD may be starting to fail, so I bought a new drive, cloned my current HDD and installed the new one. I'm still experiencing some slow downs, but I haven't had the other issue resurface, so I'm thinking a fresh OS and restore of needed data is next. Anyway....my issue currently is that I can't delete anything. I created a blank folder and tried to delete that and couldn't. Do I need to do anything on the OS level to acknowledge this new HDD as my primary? Please help

Well cloning crap is still crap, but now it's optimized/defragmented faster crap because of the cloning onto a new drive.
Run through this list of fixes systematically and see how it goes.
Fresh install is a last resort usually.

TM will backup everything you do not specifically exclude.
You might try reinstalling OS X. See the following:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.
