That hard drive is trying to read and read and read and it can't.

if it is the same size or larger you don't need to use macrium.Īlso this whole Slow thing is NOT a data speed issue. Once it is cloned over to a good drive you can then use macrium to clone it to a different drive if the new target drive is smaller. Only thing is you have to do a 1:1 copy which means you have to clone it to a drive of the same exact size or larger. That is what I use for drives with bad sectors. The source is the same and what it has to read is exactly the same. Now if by chance there is no data for it to read where the bad sector is then you might get lucky.Ĭloning and Imaging both are the same the only difference is the target area. at least 6 or 7, if a drive any any bad sectors or too many reallocated sector counts it will almost always fail. In my experience, and I have been using Macrium for quite a few years now.
