If you have a Windows box available you can use the free version of AOMEI to 
copy just about any type of partition. Dunno if it can also resize 
non-Microsoft partition types, never tried.

Re: [Emc-users] Loading SSD

I use Clonezilla too.
But Clonezilla check if the data stored dimension on the source disk is
lower than the destination capacity disk.
I never pay attention about the disk size.
I cloned a 320GB disk on a 120GB ssd  without any configuration
modification.
Of course you can verify the conformity size before to start the cloning
procedure.
Clonezilla is a good cloning tool and it's free. ;-)

What I would do is take a known-good SSD and use that to create a disk
image file on the HD of the PC that the adaptor is connected to.
You can then copy that image to the new SSD when required.

The tool to do this (both ways) is probably dd. If you look at the
instructions for creating a USB stick for a normal LinuxCNC install
the process will be pretty much the same, except that the initial
phase will be reversed, to copy a drive to a file.

There are alternatives, some discussed (for example) here:

I use clonezilla to clone drives. The only caveat is either both drives 
have to be the same size or you have to use the advanced option and tell 
it to ignore the size of the target drive.

[Emc-users] Loading SSD

2016-05-02 Thread Rick Lair
Good Morning All,

I recently purchased one of these,
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817707380 in order
to build new systems for the machines, ( to avoid having another PC half
torn down on my table to quickly insert and remove the hard drives) and
work with other HDD and SSD's lying around, my question is, what is the
best way to create a new system on a blank SSD using a device like this?
