To clone a hard drive to a WD SSD, you need to use disk cloning software, like EaseUS Disk Copy, which provides a secure, fast and easy way to clone data from one hard drive to another. With EaseUS Disk Copy, you can easily migrate your entire system or partitions in minutes without any hassle.
Step 1: Download and install EaseUS Disk Copy on your computer.
Step 2: Connect the WD SSD to your computer.

Step 4: Select your hard drive as the source disk, and click "Next".
