Overall Review: Based on some other users' bad experiences maybe I just got lucky, but I would definitely recommend this product (and have). Previously I used a bootable CD w/ DriveClone to do my cloning/backups but was pleased that the bundled Apricorn software could properly handle a full clone (including the swap and system files) while running under Windows 7 圆4 w/o errors or issues.Ĭons: None - everything worked exactly as expected. This is expected however since the internal mechanical drive just couldn't keep up with the SSD and was bottle-necking the transfer. The transfer rate during the clone was definitely faster than USB 2.0 speeds but wasn't full USB 3.0 speed (in the 120 - 130MB/s range if I remember correctly). Pros: I used the Apricorn USB 3.0 to SATA adapter along with the bundled software to clone the factory-installed Seagate Momentus XT 500GB hybrid drive of my Clevo P150HM to an external Crucial M4 512GB SSD w/o issue. In my opinion this item is well worth purchasing. I was swayed to make a purchase by a nice rebate. The process worked, even though USB 2.0 connection provides less power and is much slower. I then copied another 60 GB off my laptops drive to new SSD over USB 2.0 connection. I plugged the SSD to my desktop and copied about 50 GB data off OS drive to new SSD. Overall Review: - The cable appears sturdy and well made. The software will work off executable.Ĭons: - Its guaranteed for SSDs only due to the power limitations of USB ports. Newest version of cloning software can be downloaded from Apricorn website. HD can be clone while your computer is on. Pros: - Clone existing HD containing OS or data to a SSD over USB.
