When I cloned the Samsung 2TB ssd C: drive from my laptop (using Samsung migration software) to another exactly same Samsung ssd (which I keep temporarily in a usb caddy to be removed & replaced into laptop in case of emergency), it gave a message saying the C: drive was encrypted and would need to be decrypted before cloning which could take quite a while.
I decrypted it but never bothered re-encrypting because I didn’t want to keep doing it again for future clones and also someone told me this is a requirement of all such programs. But my data is vulnerable if the laptop is stolen.
So before I re-encrypt it, my question is: I know Hasleo Backup must be superior to Samsung Migration software, so can it clone an encrypted drive to another ssd in a usb caddy without the need to first decrypt it? Also can it image encrypted C drive.
I know Hasleo say it preserves BitLocker encryption after restore, but don’t know if this means encryption has to be disabled and then re-enabled with same key, or if it all just works. I don’t want to re-enable it, without asking first.
