RE: My lunch with Microsoft



For cloning, I formerly yanked out the hard drive of my Lenovo and
popped into a standalone "toaster" duplicator. Result: a sector-by-sector,
bootable, clone of my current disk. But the SSD on my new Lenovo can't be
easily removed (old required removing one phillips screw). So I need to
use software while I'm re-booted into some OS set up for the purpose. Now
my question: where can I learn STEP-BY-STEP instructions for doing
this--i.e., making a bootable clone (with EaseUS or Acronis or whatever)?

Thanks, very much.

Yes. I used Acronis at the University for my whole IT department and dev.
server; It was great for quick backups and whole system images. However,
it needs to put the data somewhere; That’s what the NAS is for. But the
NAS is capable of much more than that. Think of it as a super-convenient
in-house server that needs no supervision and automatically snoozes when
it’s not needed.
 
In the past, as consultant to a few small publishing companies, the NAS
I installed on their local networks was a godsend to their ability to
work together.
 
As a (retired) consultant, this is something I can’t recommend
enough. ― This advice is free; you may take it for what it’s worth.

Phil,

Actually something like 5 euros a piece if my recollection is correct.
In spite of this and in total contradistinction to MS license
management, Acronis has a terrific system of keeping all licensing
information online with downloads available and enabling the user to
transfer old licenses to new computers with ease.
