Question How to copy windows 10 from SSD to HDD

[Rahee|]

I have my windows10 on SSD. Sometimes it dont boot and not show in bios. I restart then it load windows. So I think my SSD will die soon.

I have a bootable USB for windows 10, I tried to install from it but it gives error " remove media or device" and it shows 4 GB used space but it didnt show anything in the folders.

I want to copy windows 10 from SSD to HDD, so whenever it didnt startup, I will boot from HDD. Is there any way to do it. Thanks

250 GB WD SSD
2 TB Seagate HDD

Is there anything on the HDD?
If so, that will be wiped out during this clone operation.

I recommend getting a new SSD, and fixing whatever issue prevents the system from booting the Win 10 install USB.
Then, a fresh OS install on the new SSD.

After running windows on a SSD, you will be very disappointed trying to run using a HDD as a C drive.

Replace your ssd with a larger ssd.

If the old ssd is suspect, you probably do not want to simply copy it.
If you want to try, make the replacement a samsung and use the samsung ssd migration aid.
It is a logical C drive mover(not a bit for bit clone)
If your old C drive is corrupted, the aid will fail.
