I have changed from a previous 1TB disk from Toshiba to a 500 MB SSD from SAMSUNG. I have generated a full image backup, and after with a bootable pen I have tryed to restore the new 500 disk with it. Immediatly at the begining systems generats an error and aborts process. Was it because the disks have different lenghts? Or because disks are diferent types?
I have solved the problem with a a bootable pen that restores the disk as it was previously when I bought the Toshiba satellite PC. This is a SW included in the Toshiba PC.
But then I have to download and installed all SW that I had on the HDD disk. This take me more or less one and a half day of working.
Why the image backup process fails?

Why not clone from old to new. Many use this one. Applies to W8 and 10.
