Renee Becca will first fulfill the used storage of each partition and then divide the rest of free space equally in according to the number of the partitions to each partition in new disk when cloning. Here, we can refer to the following example:
Original disk before clone…
Size of Source disk: 500 GB

Size of used space in total: 56.8 GB

We can get information of each partitions’ used space from the following chart.

Disk with smaller size after clone…

Free space in total: 62.4 GB

Conditions of 3 partitions after cloned:

*After allocating enough used space of each partition, the rest 62.4 GB will be divided in to 3 parts equally and add to each partition separately.
