I copied partitions from HDD to SSD, the exact copies in the same order. Added /EFI/refind/refind_x64.efi from SSD ESP partition to Boot menu. So I have 2 rEFInd installed, one on HDD, second - SSD.
When I loading using rEFInd from HDD I can see Arch Linux item to load, and it's loaded correctly. There is also Windows 8 system to load - menu showing and system loaded correctly.
When I loading using rEFInd from SSD I can't see Arch Linux item to load. But Windows 8 is presents and system loaded correctly.
Sometimes a re-scan is necessary to bring up items from a secondary disk or partition. Hitting the Esc key will do this. To avoid having to do this every time, uncomment the scan_delay option in refind.conf and set it to whatever value is necessary. (Usually, scan_delay 1 will suffice.)

Problem is solved now. The problem's reason was that the partitions UUID were not unique, that is, partitions copies on SSD were created too exact including UUID :)
I generated a UUID for SSD partitions and problem gone away.

I checked that /boot directories are equival on HDD and SSD http://jpegshare.net/45/83/45831d66cbf74a0b947ea476822849ce.png.html but Arch on HDD is detected and on SDD is not.
So rEFInd does not automatically detect Arch OS from SSD, only Windows 8 is detected automatically. Any advices?
