Once chkdsk has completed, please try the clone again, and let us know what happens. Your file system will analyzed for problems and this may take some time to complete. If you receive the message 'Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked the net time your system restarts?' press 'Y' then enter. Type 'chkdsk C: /r /f', with 'C' replaced with the letter of your source drive if different, and press enter.ģ. Note: In Windows Vista/7/8, you need to start the command prompt with elevated privileges:Ģ. Click 'Start' > 'All Programs' > 'Accessories' then click 'Command Prompt'. Can you please run 'chkdsk' on this disk:ġ. Any suggestions as to why this clone process is not working would be greatly appreciated.Ī 'Read' error indicates a problem with the source disk of the clone operation. The first, smaller partition appears to clone OK but the failure occurs during the clone of the second, larger partition. Also, I have tried this on two different destination drives (different models) with the exact same result. By the way, I did not perform any kind of format or anything like that on the new target drive because I thought the Reflect software would take care of that. This does not seem like some random hardware failure.

The process gets to the 65% complete point and fails. I have tried the clone process three times with the exact same result all three times. The source drive has a lot of encrypted files because I am using the Windows encryption on a lot of directories.

The source drive has shown no indications of problems, I am just running out of space. I am running Windows XP Pro and I am trying to clone a 300GB hard drive in my laptop to a 500GB SATA hard drive connected through a USB using a SATA to USB conversion enclosure.
