Are these the same machine or two different machines? If this were me performing the task... I would add an external drive on the old machine, boot to Clonezilla, and use Clonezilla to backup/clone to the external drive. Then I would plug the external drive into the new machine with the SSDs, and use Clonezilla to write the backup from the external drive to the new machine. Jeff
