"To manage the files conveniently, I allocated a partition in the GPT disk of my Windows 10 64 bit computer to store my files. With increasing numbers of storage files, there is almost no free space in the storage partition. So, I want to clone the storage partition to another GPT SSD and use the GPT SSD as the specialized storage device. However, I failed to migrate the full storage partition to the GPT SSD with simple copy and paste. Is there any effective way to clone GPT partition to GPT SSD in the Windows 10 64 bit computer?"

As the GPT disk can support more than 2TB disk volume and up to 128 partitions, the GPT partition style is more and more popular today. Except partitioning the system disk with GPT, some Windows users even choose a GPT SSD to be the data storage device. At this time, it's must be more ideal if the file storage volume in the original GPT disk can be migrated to the GPT SSD. Here, an easy but powerful way is introduced for you to clone GPT partition to GPT SSD in Windows 10/7 64 bit computer.
