My Pavilion has a 256GB drive and decided I wanted more storage so I bought a 1 TB drive. I cloned the smaller drive with Aomei Partition Assistant and all the files appear intact. I tried to boot from the USB attached cloned drive and got a boot device error. Does that imply the cloning did not work? I have previously cloned a smaller to a larger drive for my desktop with the same software and it worked fine. I was hoping to verify the cloning was effective before opening up the laptop to swap drives.
