![]() I worked around this issue for by creating a partition on the SSD so that one WD drive was seen by Acronis. (Despite having in fact two WD drives installed). I added a WD Blue 500GB SSD drive to this PC and used Acronis WD Edition to clone to the new drive.įirst issue: Error message mentioned by OP that no WD drive was detected. I have a desktop PC with a WD Blue 1TB HDD drive that came with an Intel Optane cache. ![]() I’m not sure if this is the same problem as you or the original poster were having, but here is what I saw, which to me implies there is a conflict between Intel Optane and the Acronis WD Edition clone process: Once I did that, the clone worked out fine, although it seemed to take forever, like 3 hours. It didn’t work for me the first time because I didn’t read the instructions and I didn’t check the Advanced Settings (or something like that) and made sure that “Sector by sector clone” and “Optimize for SSD” boxes were checked. I finally got it working by using the free edition of EaseUS ToDo Backup. A check in Task Manager confirms that no Acronis process is running. The Acronis cloning procedure does not restart. When I do that (3 times so far) It just reboots the computer. The cloning screen starts up and then I get a “You Must Reboot Computer to continue” message. I can now get through the source and destination disk selection process in Acronis. The Acronis software appears to be loading. I have temporarily bypassed this problem by plugging in one of my other WD external USB hard drives. ![]() However, when I try to run the Acronis WD Edition software it says “Acronis True Image WD Edition Installation Restricted - This product edition requires at least one Western Digital drive to be installed in your system” The WD SSD Dashboard can see my USB-attached WD SSD Blue 500GB. I am trying to clone my existing 500GB laptop drive to a new WD SSD Blue 500GB using Acronis True Image WD Edition that was downloaded from the WD site. ![]()
