Hello, i will get a SunDisk ultra 3d 1TB tomorrow and i will clone it with the B&O software tool. I understand it so that i have to replace the original HDD with the SSD and then boot up with the b&o tool and then clone the entire HDD, is that the right way ??

Thanks for any tips

Good if you have the b&o tool (which I do not know) - instead I used a cloning device as the drive ID needs to be copied as well. Cloning devices are relatively inexpensive. best, Robert

Job is done with the B&O Tool and it was very easy, clone the entire HDD and after that i had to run the recovery. 😐

The Size of the new HDD was automaticly acepted...

Hi!

I am just curious... what version of BS5/BM5 Service Manual is that from?

Service Manual I have doesn't have that picture on page 4.6... :-)

Would you be so kind to share it?

Thanks,

Damir

I think it's the Manual of the Maintaince Tool

it is quieter the temperatures are lower and it is faster if you change sources or scroll through the tracks

I just want to add to Gerads solution:

1.) I bought a 1TB Sandisk ULTRA 3D SSD as suggested.

2.) purchased Acronis and created an Acronis 2018 rescue CD

3) mounted the old BeoMaster disk and the new 1TB Sandisk ULTRA 3D SSD in my PC (no other drives)

4.) Booted my PC on the Acronis rescue CD and selected “clone disk”. Source old BM5 and destination new SSD

The clone process cloned the old BoeMaster 1tb disk, including 400gb music files to the Ssd. I mounted the SSD in my BeoMaste and everything worked - it was a 100% clone- just faster and silent!

I am sure that you can also use Acronis 2019 and 2020, probably also 2017.
