Cloning a non-system disk or a disk containing an operating system, but one that is not currently
active, will proceed without the need to reboot. After you click Proceed, Acronis True Image Home
will start cloning the old disk to the new disk, indicating the progress in a special window. You can
stop this procedure by clicking Cancel. In that case, you will have to repartition and format the new
disk or repeat the cloning procedure. After the cloning operation is complete, you will see the results
message.
9.5 Adding a new hard disk
If you do not have enough space for your data (e.g. family photos and videos), you can either replace
the old disk with a new higher-capacity one (data transfers to new disks are described in the previous
chapter), or add a new disk only to store data, leaving the system on the old disk. If the computer has
a bay for another disk, it would be easier to add a disk drive than to clone one.
To add a new disk, you must first install it in your PC.
To add a new hard disk:
Click Tools & Utilities in the main menu and then click Add new disk on the Tools & Utilities
screen.
Follow the Add new disk Wizard steps
If there are any partitions on the new disk, they must be deleted first. If the added disk contains partitions,
Acronis will warn you by displaying the warning message. Click OK to delete the existing partitions on the added
disk.
