Start True Image 2013 and check whether it detects the SSD. If it detects the SSD, use the Add new
disk tool to create a single partition on the disk occupying the entire disk space. When creating a
partition, check that the free space before partition is 1 MB. For more information, see Adding a new
hard disk (p. 196).
The next step is to check whether your Acronis bootable rescue media recognizes the SSD.
1. Boot from the rescue media.
2. Select Tools & Utilities -> Add New Disk in the main menu and the Disk selection screen will
show the information about all hard disks in your system. Use this for checking whether the SSD
is detected in the recovery environment.
3. If the screen shows your SSD, just click Cancel.
If the rescue media does not recognize the SSD and the SSD controller mode is ACHI, you can try to
change the mode to IDE (or ATA in some BIOS brands) and see whether this solves the problem.
Attention! Do not start Windows after changing the mode; it may result in serious system problems. You must
return the mode to ACHI before starting Windows.
If after changing the mode the rescue media detects the SSD, you may use the following procedure
for recovery or cloning under rescue media:
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Boot to BIOS, change the mode from AHCI to IDE (or ATA in some BIOS brands).
3. Boot from Acronis rescue media.
4. Recover or clone the disk.
5. Boot to BIOS and change IDE back to AHCI.
6. Start Windows.
What to do if the above suggestions do not help
Owners of True Image 2013 Plus Pack can try to create a WinPE-based rescue media. This may
provide the necessary drivers. For more information, see Creating WinPE-based rescue media (p.
176).
One more option is to request a custom rescue media from Acronis Support. For more information,
see Creating a custom rescue CD (p. 233).
Please be aware that finding the appropriate drivers and making the custom rescue media may take time.
Furthermore, finding the appropriate drivers may not be possible in some cases.
