Trying to do a favor for someone and upgrade their Samsung laptop from a 640GB slow hard drive to a 240GB Mushkin SSD. So far none of the free stuff works. EaseUS Todo Backup seems to do the trick, but after a 5 hour clone the laptop can't find it to boot off of it. The files are there for whatever that's worth. Acronis Easy Migration is a total bust as are any other free program I've tried. Most have the features needed for cloning disabled or severely limited in the free versions. Anybody know one that will work going from a larger hard drive to a smaller SSD. The hard drive has less than 100GB on it so it really shouldn't be an issue. I've used EaseUS before successfully, but not with a laptop. After two 5 hours useless clones with it, I'd rather use something else.
