Hi,
I'm attempting to clone my 140GB hard drive to a new Seagate 1TB hard drive.
I've been having some problems trying to get the cloning process to start on Acronis and I'm beginning to think it's due to the fact that my 140GB hard drive has a cluster size of 512 bytes whereas my new hard drive can't be formatted to anything lower than 4096 bytes.
I'm running Windows Vista Business SP2. I'm wondering if this is a software or hardware problem? Is there an update I could use to format my new drive to the same cluster size or have I bought the wrong hard drive all together?
Thanks
