Free disk cloner Windows 7

By | September 18, 2014

Question: I have a 250GB disk which installs Windows 7. Now, the whole disk does not have much space to use since it has been used for more than 3 years. I bought a 1TB new disk last week and plan to replace the old with it, so a free disk cloner which can be compatible with Windows 7 is needed. By the way, I don’t want to reinstall operating system, which is so troublesome and time-wasting. Would you mind recommending such a cloning program to help me clone the system disk?

 

Answer: considering all these demands, we suggest using MiniTool Drive Copy. Firstly, it is free for Windows 7 users or other Windows PC users. Secondly, it is able to clone the whole system disk to the new. That is to say users can upgrade old disk without reinstalling Windows. Thirdly, no professional knowledge is required, and detailed prompts will be given in every interface. At last, the free Windows 7 disk cloner is safe enough so that data security can be ensured even if accidents like power outage appear suddenly.
