Hi all,
I cloned my 120gb ssd using a Star tech Duplicator to a 60gb clone which worked great until I realized I could do with the extra space, Now having wiped the ssd, thinking I would get all my 120Gb back, it still reports 60gb. I've looked at some tools on the parted magic disk , and all reported the drive capacity as 60 Gb when I know its a 120Gb, has anyone got any ideas on how I can reset this ssd to show 120GB
Many thanks

You need to select the option in your cloning software to resize drive to fill unallocated space. You should also be able to boot from the 60GB disk as FireWire2 says and then use disk management to extend the volume on the 120GB to use all the unallocated space.
