Question Trying clone HD, getting errors.

[Rumblefish2020]

I am trying to clone a full internal hard drive with photos (2TB) to a new hard drive 6TB. I am using Macrum Reflect and get to 99% and then I get a "clone Failed Error 9" message.
anyone familiar with this?

suggestions for how to do this, trouble shooting or alternative software?

Assuming this is a secondary drive, why not just copy/paste from the 2TB to the 6TB.
No clone needed.

Second to just copy the files over.

For the error (i'm not used to Macrum because I've used Clonezilla for many years) I may suggest the 2TB drive has a MBR partition table while 6TB require GPT type partition table.

Have a look at this article:
