I would probably removed both source and target drives and relocated them as slaves in another computer. If the source disk had been an OS drive, some other cloning method would have been required. Something to do with Windows not being bootable from a USB drive.

The Seagate manual is clear on this point. PS: It should be noted that the above method wouldn't have worked if the source drive had been the OS (Windows) drive. They were imported icons, not ready-mades, and were sitting in their own folder.ДЄnother reboot and everything was back to normal. This was only necessary because a dozen or so icons weren't displaying properly, due to the change in path. The only thing I needed to do was change the drive letter of the 2TB replacement disk from 'E' to 'P', which was the the letter I'd given the old drive ('P' for 'Programs') Swapped the newly cloned 2TB disk for the old 500GB, rebooted and voila. and restarted the computer.ДЄfter the boot, I waited until it settled down (super-carefully making sure that everything was running normally) then shut it down again. I'd set the check box to turn off the computer after the clone finished.(25 mins)Д«efore I rebooted I switched off the USB3 dock. Started DiscWizard, it called for a reboot, and the clone proceeded in 'DOS'. Which was what I was aiming at, with neither drive needing to be disturbed at this point. The target 2TB disk stayed where it was in the USB3 dock, and the source 500GB system (storage and a few programs) disk remained in its position in the tower.

I used Seagate DiscWizard (which, for those who didn't know, is a free Acronis app that also comes in a WD version) OK, here's a heads-up: The cloning job turned out to be a real breeze.

I don't know about W7 32bit.ДЇWIW, here's a list of apps I've either tried, or just noted because of a claim to contain a proper clone facility:ДЄcronis Disk Director, Acronis True Image, Casper, DiscWizard (Seagate Acronis), DiscWizard (WD Acronis), HandyBackup, HDClone, Macrium Reflect, MiniTool Partition Wizard, Paragon Drive Copy, R-Drive Image, Terabyte Drive Image, TeraByte Drive Image Backup & Restore Suite, AOMEI Backupper, Clone Disk, CloneZilla Sadly, the Migrate Easy app doesn't work in W7. I'd mount both old and new drives as slaves in a workshop computer - the new drive out of the box, untouched, unformatted - and the process would run in Windows. I used it most often when a customer had a failing drive. This was my app of choice during my XP days, and never let me down, whether the clone was to a smaller or larger drive. For anyone using Windows XP, I can guarantee a successful and stress-free clone job if Acronis Migrate Easy is used.
