I'm trying to copy from a 2 TB Seagate HD to a 4 TB WD HD. I've tried several different programs that supposedly copy/clone from one disk or partition to another, including Seagate disk wizard, Ease US Partition Manager, DriveImage XML, and a couple of others. I have yet to find one that looks like it will do the copy.
Seagate disk wizard didn't even let me select the WD as a destination disk. Ease US Partition Manager tells me that the source and destination have different sector sizes so the one cannot be copied to the other. DriveImageXML didn't show the right capacity for the destination (showing 500 GB instead of 4 TB), so I was afraid to proceed further in case it was selecting the wrong disk (since I have a HD that really is 500 GB, and I didn't want to overwrite it by mistake). I could go on, but like I said I have yet to find a utility that looks like it will do the copy.
In theory, the source HD is only half the size as the destination so I should be able to copy from one to another. Is there a utility that will do this copy? Do I need to return the WD drive and buy another Seagate, so that hopefully it will have the same sector size as the source drive?
