Hello! I'm trying to clone my 512GB SSD to my much larger 4TB USB hard drive, without disrupting the other partitions. I've tried cloning 3 different ways: GParted, Macrium reflect cloning, and Macrium Reflect image and then restored to the drive. In each case I cannot boot. Though the clone is...

I have installed windows 10 on three different drives and windows 11 on one drive. To install windows on each I had to remove the other drives from the PC. However this has created a bootloader on each drive and my system is now totally confused. I select the drive on sata port one as the main...

Hello, my goal is to replace all bytes on a disk with 0s with a single pass. I have done this many times, but yesterday, I read that I can do it faster with a larger block size 4096. My understanding is, if I use Diskpart or other terminal program to format the entire disk slowly, it will...

Is there any way to partition or split a drive along with selective or specific files/folders?

As title says. The folder is placed on my secondary hard drive and it comes from an old PC of mine. The problem is that the folder was owned by my other PC's local account. I fixed that by adding myself as owner and I still can't remove the folder. I've even downloaded a regedit file that adds...

Then I insert in either a Chromebook or a MacBook or Linux each having different operating systems. When my...
