Something to CLONE a BIG HD to a smaller SSD ......
 

I did this in the past but the issue was the SSD booting and cant recall wtf i used.


500 gb HD (only 70 gb used) is being cloned to a 256 SSD

The usual clonezilla and others have issue with a LARGE to smaller cloning for some reason..


If you know of anything lmk.

EASE TODO backup also had issues and the crap that comes with the SSD's such as Samsung migration wizard have issues with LARGE to SMALLERs...

Smaller to LARGER is no issue obviously...
