Here is what it told me to do:Ī) Run SFC /scannow from an elevated command prompt. I found this forum post: … I followed the first link.
The log stated, 'MFT Bitmap corrupted.' I did a google search.ħ.
It made it about halfway through before giving me an error and telling me it failed. I clicked proceed to start the cloning process. It automatically recognized the unpartitioned SSD as the drive to copy the data to. I went to tools and utilities and clicked the clone disk option.ĥ. The software opens I clicked start or whatever it said.Ĥ. I powered down the system, connected the SSD to a spare cable, and booted through the disk drive. I created a bootable media disk using the software and inserted the disc into the computer.ģ. From that, I installed the Acronis software.Ģ. I went to WD's site and downloaded their SSD Dashboard. The HDD I am replacing is a Seagate 1 TB drive. The SSD I purchased was a WD Blue 3D NAND 2TB SSD. I was told initially to do a fresh install of Windows, but after telling folks in the Discord that there are 6 users in this system with their own stuff, they told me to go ahead and clone the stuff on the hard drive over to the SSD. Preface: The 2012 Lenovo desktop my family uses has become a tad slow over the years so I encouraged my parents to buy an SSD to replace the HDD.
