I get a pop up list which includes disk 1,3,4,5,6 not the source disk but also not the caddy disk either. I then get a new window with MBR Disk 2 as the source with empty destination. To repeat what I tried yesterday I clicked on my C: drive which is MBR Disk 2 and then click on clone this disk. This drive again shows on the main Macrium page as MBR Disk 7 and I get no problems with drive signatures. I then clicked on the drive and then "Format"Īfter cloning with AOMEI I can now see the drive in the caddy showing in file explorer as two partitions Boot Partition (H) and System Partition (J) What I did was open windows disk management and right clicked on the boot partition and clicked delete and then I did the same for the System partition.īoth Partitions merged into 1 and then showed up as "Unallocated". I had to use my AOMEI backupper to do it and that worked fine!Ĭan someone let me know what I am doing wrong please?īTW I tried a restore to the caddy as well and it didn't show up there either.

I deleted all partitions on the destination drive and re-formatted and re-booted but it still doesn't show up? So i made it go online and then I could see it in the main list but not on the clone to list. The drive in the caddy was not showing in the main list either at first and I found out that there was a conflicting signature so the drive was offline. I tried to clone my system to an identical ssd in my usb caddy but when the list pops up where I should select the destination disk the caddy is not there. So still playing and testing at the moment. Otherwise, are you sure that after getting the caddy disk to appear in the main Reflect list you didn't accidentally select "Clone this disk" while you had that disk selected? In that case, Reflect wouldn't allow you to specify the caddy disk as the destination since you already selected it as the soure. Formatting is an operation that is only ever performed against a partition, so how could you reformat AFTER deleting the partitions? Do you mean you reinitialized the drive using the diskpart "clean" command? After you did whatever you did there and rebooted, did the disk come online automatically when Windows started back up? I'm thinking the matching signature was the issue (which I believe is why Reflect changes the signature on disk clones when both will be online together going forward), but I'm betting that if you were to reinitialize the disk in the caddy using the "clean" command if you didn't do that previously, Reflect would start cooperating with it.

You said you deleted all partitions and reformatted.
