#MACRIUM REFLECT TRIAL NO REDPLOY DRIVER#

The source computer appears to use a Microsoft driver for the Samsung. Another potential area of concern is the Samsung SSD itself, which will be physically the same in both machines.

My concern revolves around the numerous hardware differences in the target computer (e.g., graphics card - both Nvidia GeForce GTX cards, but the older machine has a GTX-1050 and the newer one employs a GTX-1060). Also, both machines run (or will run, in the case of the target computer) WIndows 10 Pro. Per the recommendation of a helpful Macrium support agent, I will make sure that both the source and target machines use the same boot system (GPT/EUFI rather than traditional MBR/BIOS). The plan is to boot the target computer ( XPS 8930) from the Rescue CD that we made from the older XPS 8900 machine. The Samsung will then be moved to the 'target' computer, a newer, improved Dell XPS 8930 desktop, which is a direct descendant of the 8900 (but is not identical from a hardware standpoint).

What the client wants us to do is to create a full image of the Samsung SSD in the source machine, including a Rescue CD. The mass storage device in this computer (its C: Windows system disk) is a 512 GB Samsung SSD (very quick and quiet). The 'source' machine is a 2015 Dell XPS 8900 desktop computer. To keep things relatively simple, I will focus on the first deployment project in this message. In both cases, they want a 'better' computer without having to reinstall everything (OS, programs. I have been asked by two different clients to use ReDeploy in Reflect to transfer an image from one computer to another, retaining the OS, applications and data files of the original machine. However, I have never used the ReDeploy function before. I have worked with Macrium Reflect for several years.
