HELP : I cannot use acronis with my brand new Sandisk Ultra II

Yea, I had the same issue when I upgraded another system with a WD Blue series SSD…  Acronis would pick up on the drive, install, but when it came time to do that actual cloneing process it load, and then present a message box stating that I didn’t have any WD/Sandisk drive installed and direct me to go purchase a full copy of Acronis (it wouldn’t run beyond that prompt).  I was using the internal native SATA 3 controller of that system, not another interface (ie: USB).  After several attampts to try and figure out why it wasn’t working, I threw in the towel and ended up using AOMEI Backupper (the free edition) to clone the drive I wanted to replace.
