I need to clone a 300gb drive over to a 250gb SSD. Is there any free software that can do this? I have a double drive dock I can use for the process. It has a duplicator but only works if the new drive is larger or same size.
If you have access to it, acronis true image will do what you are asking.
Paragon will also do it easily.
Clonezilla on the other hand while completely free, won't go from large disk to small disk easily without some fudging. Not saying you can't do it, but it definitely takes a little more knowhow.
