Recovery Manager Restoration Incomplete

[denrok]

I created a usb recovery image from the hp recovery manager but when I try and restore i'm getting the following error "Restoration Incomplete" i've tried it 3 times and the same issue arises.

I'm trying to restore onto to new SATA 2.5 SSD drive rather than the original PCI slot one.

The so-called Recover process starts by attempting to recreate the original partitions on the new drive.  Problem is, if the new drive is smaller than the original, there is not enough room and that will fail.  You can't use the Recovery function to migrate from a large HDD to a small SDD.

Hi my old drive that i created the recovery image on was 240GB the new one is 480GB

OK .. then it SHOULD have worked -- so I don't know what to tell you.
