Weather Reporting Fault

The Weather Station is working just fine, but the computer that transfers the data from the station to the Internet reported a fault. There were clusters going bad on the drive, and it wanted me to replace the drive when I could. I ordered an SSD drive, and now I have to work out how to mirror the original drive onto the SSD. I have tried a couple of methods that were supposed to be straightforward, but have turned out not to be because of drive lettering, and trying not to conflict with the C: drive of the computer I am attaching to. There were no SATA ports available in the Weather Computer as it is an all in one form factor, which I chose because it runs on low wattage, and takes up little space and only a single wall outlet. It was a good idea three years ago!

I am now trying a device that mirrors the drives inserted in it automatically, but seems to take days to do so. I remember using it once when I got it new some time ago, and it was the same schtick. It’s been running for 12 hours and does not even show 25% progress on the indicator lights.

I’ll update again if this works or not.
