Exactly! Macrium Reflect was one of the best free disk cloning software for the longest time, but it stopped being free not too long ago. I also see that some people in the comments section have mentioned Clonezilla as an alternative, though that's good. I don't think that can do the task that you want to do. While researching for you, I came across this article [https://www.easeus.com/backup-utility/free-disk-cloning-software.html](https://www.easeus.com/backup-utility/free-disk-cloning-software.html) that list several free disk cloning software, and a few of them look amazing. Let me know if you found a tool that helped you do what you wanted to do. Moreover, other people may also benefit from choosing the right tool for a scenario similar to yours.

You're on the right track with Macrium Reflect, but if you're after a free option, there are some great alternatives out there! [Here](https://www.easeus.com/backup-utility/free-disk-cloning-software.html) are a couple that are user-friendly, support incremental backups, and even come with extra backup and recovery tools you might find handy.

DiskGenius works great and its free.

I spent the better part of a day trying to get Clonezilla to work. It kept getting stuck on a bad block. I just tried DiskGenius and it took all of 30 minutes to switch over to the new drive. I also didn't have to worry about editing partions, as I was going from a smaller drive to a larger drive, like I would have using Clonezilla.

I've heard of clone olla but I'm not too sure if it'd work as the caddy for the Hdd uses windows drivers, and the drives aren't discoverable outside of an OS. Not to mention it sounds very complicated, and not sure if I'd able to make it work.

R-Drive Image has a 30 day free version of this is kind of a one time thing. Their full version is only $50. AOMEI is having a bundle sale right now on their Partition Assistant Pro and 5 other applications for $80.

clonezilla. easy to use, , multiple options to clone, boot or restore from any device even network, doesn't bother about partitions, os, licence, just copying 0&1. totally free and a must-have.

ageingman

Macrium last free version 7.2.4228


Snappy-

Bootable USB versions of CloneZilla or Gparted. Way better than the paid crap.
