I was able to clone Disk 0 to Disk 1. This is the current Disk Manager.

I think it now boots from a larger Disk 1. Then how can one format Disk 0 so that I can use it for the data? How can I set Disk 1 as Disk 0?

STOP

At the end of the clone process, your first moe should have been:

Power OFF
Physically disconnect the old drive
Power UP and allow the system to boot from the new drive alone.

Do this now.

What tool did you use for this clone?
What drives are involved?

Well....

Power OFF
Physically disconnect Disk 0.
Power up

What happens?


What tool did you use for this clone?
You now have a 932GB wasted space at the end of Disk 1.

With the right tool, this could have been alleviated during the clone process.
