Question HP Envy X360 -Unable to boot from cloned Samsung 2TB SSD

[vij255]

Hi guys,

I bought a 2TB m.2 Samsung 970 EVO plus SSD to upgrade my HP Envy X360 15-ed0xxx. I didn't realize that it only supports up to 1 TB M.2 SSD. Is that a hardware limitation or a bios limitation? Is there any workaround, or should I return and get a 1TB? I'm just trying to understand.

Manual

Support for the following solid-state drives:
● 1 TB, M.2 2280, peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe), non-volatile memory express (NVMe) 3×4, SuperSpeed (SS) solid-state drive with triple layer cell (TLC)
● 1 TB, M.2 2280, PCIe, NVMe value solid-state drive

Try a different clone util.
I use aomei backupper which so far has worked well.
Another to try is macrium reflect.
