After you click Proceed, Acronis Migrate Easy will start cloning the old disk to the

Old and new disk partition layouts

The manual transfer method enables you to resize partitions on the new disk. By
default, the program resizes them proportionally.

In the next window, you will see rectangles indicating the source hard disk,
including its partitions and unallocated space, as well as the new disk layout.
