You could also use ImageX from a Windows PE disc (or run it from a flash drive with a Windows 7 install / repair disc).
You would capture the image to a wim file, then apply it to the new SSD. Since this is based on files instead of sectors, you shouldn't have a problem with it being smaller as long as the data will fit. ImageX comes with the Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK). It is a 1.7 GB download to get the 568KB exe you need. If you want it send me a PM and I'll upload it somewhere.
Code:
ImageX Tool for Windows
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp. All rights reserved.
Version: 6.1.7600.16385
IMAGEX [Flags] /Operation [Parameter List]
Operation [ APPEND | APPLY | CAPTURE | DELETE |
DIR | EXPORT | INFO | SPLIT |
MOUNT | MOUNTRW | REMOUNT | UNMOUNT |
CLEANUP | COMMIT ]
For help on a specific operation type:
