A much more comprehensive version of Disk Management basically. Very good, would recommend.

After a couple other programs failed and only offered SSD to SSD migration with a paid lifetime membership for 70 bugs without me knowing if it´s worth a penny i came across this program.

At first i tried the option ´hot migration´ and it seemed like it had worked. The PCs booting time took a lil´ longer than average loading time. But after a while i recognized some bugs like the brightness slider not working anymore.

So i cloned the SSD again this time not selecting ´hot migration´ but instead ´winpe´ the pc rebooted and cloned the SSD with almost 500mb/s and now everything is working fine. Many thanks finally software that gets the job done!

After you cloned your disk you can run a check with the windows repair tool just use ´DISM´ and afterwards ´SFC´ in the cmd as Administrator. The system will then check for corrupted files.

Doesn't work like it should. Tried cloning c drive and system migration of c drive. My computer wouldn't boot from the new hard drive. Sure it cloned everything and migrated the way it should but still isn't bootable.

I depend on DiskGenius for archiving data from computers that are going to be refurbished. It's ability to do this task while the system is in use is extremely helpful. Additionally I've been a fool and not had power plugged in correctly, but DiskGenius continued with the task upon waking from hibernation without incident. Amazing!

I was using diskgenius to clone a harddrive. Unfortunately, diskgenius listed the harddrives differently than they were named on the computer. For some reason it moved drive G to drive I and made it look like the new drive intended to be cloned to was called G, while the actual G was called I. So, when I formatted the I drive I was actually formatting the original G drive. Then I had to use Diskgenius to recover the formatted drive. Which ended up costing $69.90. I didn't realize it would cost so much, but I had already spent 3 days recovering it, so I paid. To make matters worse, 95% of the files in my Samsung phone backup were incorrectly recovered (jpegs were no longer recognizable) and I lost thousands of images. Now I am trying to recover them again with DMDE to see if I can actually get my cellphone pictures back. It did correctly recover about 30K dng files, so I at least got an entire Canon 5d4 folder back. Also, strangely enough, Diskgenius does not recognize Lightroom catalog files and saves them as orphans, but I can live with that. Long story short: I do not recommend Diskgenius.

The free edition was great for wiping a single drive - it was super easy. You'll need the Pro version, though, if you want to erase several drives at once. But worth.

I needed to adjust my partitions since I was running out of space, and DiskGenius made the whole process simple. The interface was clear and easy to follow.

I ran into a small problem with activation, but the support team fixed it for me fast over email. It's been working perfectly ever since.

Terrible experience. Lost a Windows 11 NTFS boot drive for no reason, wasn't appearing in BIOS. Booted into free version of software and proved the partition was still there. No one was available for support, so read the documentation and asked the Chat system which version i needed to recover the windows partition. It said the standard version would be sufficient - so i purchased a license. I activated the software, went to save the partition and told that i 'needed to purchase a higher version of the software'. I reached out to support and didn't get a response for 2 days. I checked with their chat system and got multiple contradictory comments - just standard should be ok, but just to make sure, upgrade to the professional. Ok - upgrading to professional required me to reach out to support AFTER i'd spent another $99 on the professional version in the hope that it would do what it said it would do.

There's no way, after dropping $49, that when it doesn't work and their support system doesn't work, and the only option they have is 'upgrade to the next version', I'm going to spend another $99 in a hope it will work.

I ended up rebuilding the laptop and reached out for a refund as it didn't work. Eassos are refusing to refund any payments even though they can't actually tell me why the software wasn't working.

DiskGenius successfully recovered the files from my damaged USB drive. The interface looks a bit dated, but it does what it needs to do.

I started with the Standard edition and eventually upgraded to Professional. The price for the upgrade seemed fair, and the pro features were worth it for me.

Firstly i purchased the proffesional version as the free version asked me to purchase a paid version to be able to do what i wanted to do. They had 30 day money back guarantee, so I purchased it to try. Even with full version, i was not able to do what I wanted to do so I asked for a refund under the 30 Day money back guarantee. They refused. Think twice before purchasing.
Update 28/08/25.After contacting the Eassos directly (not thru the payment processing website) they gave full refund and was happy to help to solve the issue with the software

I used diskgenius to clone my super slow 1 TB HDD containing the Windows OS, program files and some data to a new 500 GB SSD. Although twice the capacity of the SSD, the HDD had only about 180 GB stored on it. The diskgenius UI was very straightforward and in about an hour I had an SSD clone that booted the PC and so far seems to be a perfect copy of the original HDD.

I wanted to move drive C, that contains Windows and a bunch of data, to drive N, DiskIdiot's website has good SEO so I decided to try it. DiskIdiot wanted to format and partition drive N before starting, great, makes sense, did that, explicitly created a new partition and gave it a unique name because this is a bit of a sensitive task, but surely a company ranked highly by Google would be able to manage something as simple as passing the right arguments to dd, right? Started operation, double checked source and target drives, noted the tacky interface but whatever, the disk letters are unmistakeable as well as the newly created partition name. Hit start, walked away for a few hours.

Problem is, I have other drives connected, including one called D. When I came back.... the newly created partition on drive N was empty, and *DRIVE D BEEN OVERWRITTEN BY DISKIDIOT*, irreversibly destroying the majority of that disk!

Even worse... this idiotic software thinks the the new partition I explicitly created for the sake of cloning, which is twice the size of the entire source drive, is too small to be cloned to! But it was perfectly happy to overwrite drive D, with permission, which is exactly the same size and model of hard drive only already formatted with a completely different filesystem? I am in shock right now.

THE ONLY TASK THIS IDIOTIC PIECE IS SOFTWARE IS GOOD FOR IS WIPING DRIVES. IT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR BASIC TASKS AND WILL COST YOU SEVERELY.

DO INSTEAD - go with open source, or check if your disk manufacturer provides a data migration tool. I have a Samsung, and their will interests actually align with yours in moving your data to their hardware, so they won't pull shady tactics that a company like DiskIdiot clearly would!

clone C: drive and make clone USB bootable completes successfully (it claims).
USB drive is NOT bootable.
it drops into a grub prompt every time.
absolute rubbish.
3 hours of my time wasted.

Easy to install. The GUI isn't that great, looks a bit cluttered but it didn't need a learning curve. I wanted to migrate a dead slow internal HDD (running Win 11) to a smaller SSD. I connected the SSD to the PC USB port via a £6 SATA adapter from Amazon (no power supply needed for SSD) Took its time but I then replaced the HDD with the new SSD and voila! booted up perfectly and the PC is 10x faster now.Ther's a few things that you need the paid for version but not OS migration.

I used this product to clone my C drive over to a new SDD and it worked perfectly as advertised. NO loss of data and everything worked without any problems. I went from an older 300 gb drive that was very slow (8 min to boot win 10) to a much faster 500 gb SSD. The process took about 1 hr 20 min. But when it was done everything worked perfectly. (30 sec boot time now) I would definitely recommend this product.

for a simple task of moving OS drive from SSD to M.2 : it works. even on windows 11. The new drive booted ok.
I didn't have to pay them (which was my biggest fear).

If you are looking for a solution that handles uefi, secure boot and shit: look no further! Does it's job where competitors fail!

I cannot express how good this software is. I have been searching for a free way to copy my old ssd to my new ssd and this was the perfect solution. It was very quick and so easy to do, I had been searching for hours and finally found this wonderful website to do the job.
