Will this software let me clone my entire Windows 7 HP Pavilion laptop to a 3 TB Toshiba external drive?

I believe so. I have cloned many drives to 500gb, 750gb and 1 terabyte drives using acronis software

The installation software is loaded on the drive and you only get one chance at installing it. Apparently the first install was done incorrectly. Toshiba will not give you another copy of the installation software (very poor customer support), they will tell you to go on the market and buy it from a 3rd party. I will never purchase another Toshiba product because of that policy.

Your laptop has a hard drive of sorts so what you will do is transfer the program to that drive via the external CD/DVD device. Go for it.

Works fine. That is what I too have. I use the Windows 7 Back up program for backing up my computer to the Toshiba Canvio.

I did not try to clone a active hardrive like your question but you can try. However, you can use a clone from Samsung SSD drive software to clone your active harddrive, I what I did with my laptop

Yes, but it has to be formatted to exFAT if you want the files to be over 4gbs. (NTFS also for Windows)

Yes, you can use it for your windows laptop, but you need format it by exFAT

It did not work for me. My advice is do not take a chance on it. I downloaded the FREE EaseUS ToDo Backup application and cloned my entire hard drive to a smaller solid state drive as easy as copying files in windows. Then I just plugged the new drive and it started the computer just like the old one. I can't imagine it can be easier than this.

The clone kit works great, but you have to have a corsair SSD connected to the supplied cable.The software will not work otherwise.

Yes it does clone the OS, I clone my Windows 8 from Toshiba HDD to OCZ SSD 60GB, I am running the same now.

YES - it worked perfectly for me. I moved everything from one lap-top hard drive to this device.

For direct cloning, I didn't have much success when the destination drive was smaller than the source drive. If the destination is equal or larger, works fantastic! One workaround was to make an image of the source using a 3rd party software, then write the image back on the destination.

Yes, this should work fine. Remove the old drive from the desktop and mount it in this enclosure. Then power up the old drive with the included power supply and plug it into a laptop USB port with the included cable. The laptop should see the external drive and assign it a letter, probably D: or E:. You can then use Windows Explorer to drag and drop or cut and paste whatever you want. When you've got everything you want off of the old drive you could format it and use it for external backup or storage.

I'm not sure. Perhaps you can just attach both drives and use windows to copy the files.

Yes, As long as your laptop has the smaller SATA connector as shown it will work awesome. You will need cloning software and USB adapter to get your old drives data to the Toshiba. Toshiba sells such a kit that includes such. This item ONLY INCLUDES THE BARE DRIVE AS SHOWN.

I wouldn't do that. I'd use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone your drive first. If you can.

yes .... yes, the unit will start from a backup copy cloned and also of any partition
