I've been using Macrium Reflect free for several years on my W7 PC for off-line W7 only apps. As my SSD's have gotten more than half full I have gone to bigger sizes. From 256gb to 500, then 1 TB etc. Keeping the smaller cloned SSD as a backup, I've been using the new clone each time. All the clones have worked great.
My expectation was that, as I went bigger, I would be left with more unused space. I must be doing something wrong because in drive properties, the bigger drive cloned from the smaller drive shows exactly the same amount of used and unused space and the smaller. Today I cloned from a 1TB SSD to a brand new 2TB HD and the new HD has shrunk down in volume to match the SSD.
There must be a step I'm doing in default mode instead of changing a setting. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
