Automatic transfer mode is completely safe for data on the old hard disk
(source disk), since in this mode the program does nothing with it except for
reading data (the disk is not repartitioned, the partitions are not resized).
We recommend you refrain from deleting data from the old disk before you
are sure that they were correctly transferred to the new disk, and that the
latter is fully functional (the computer boots from the disk, all applications
are launched properly, and files can be opened with applications).
4.9 Manual Upgrade
The manual mode of Acronis MigrateEasy upgrade gives you full control of
program performance and capabilities (see 4.6.2 «Manual Upgrade»). Auto
upgrade should be sufficient for most Acronis MigrateEasy users, but if you
require additional flexibility, use Manual Upgrade of hard disk.
In general manual hard disk upgrade is similar to automatic mode. User
should carefully follow the upgrade wizard instructions. If you have
questions, the detailed instructions for manual hard disk upgrade are
provided in the .pdf file on the installation CD-ROM.
