How Long Does It Take to Clone a 1TB HDD to SSD?

I recently bought a new 1 TB SSD because my HDD is way too slow. But, careful as I am, I don’t feel like finishing the process without any preparation. So please explain to me how long it takes to clone all my files (games, images, music, etc.) from my 1TB HDD to my SSD.

It depends, but generally it takes 3-5 hours. Actually, Two very important factors influence its speed: size and method of transfer. Installing the new SSD into the PC is typically the quickest option. You'll likely use a USB Docking Hub, which every home should have. But both methods are laborious tasks, so here we provide you with a better alternative, a professional cloning tool - EaseUS Disk Copy.
