wolla Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Hello I have just purchased a Dell Lattidude 6500 and I plan on purchasing the Corsair 256 gb ssd. But how do I copy the data from the HD in the Dell Laptop and to the ssd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthohol Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 norton ghost, acronis, etc... you will need an external enclosure or a 2nd computer do do it. easiest way IMHO is to buy a 10 dollar external enclosure, plug it into the usb port of the laptop and use acronis or norton ghost to clone the drive. when the program completes then just install the new drive into the laptop and its ready to go and you can format the old drive and pop it into the external box and now have additional storage or just use it for backups:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted July 27, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted July 27, 2009 Or if its a new NB and you don't have anything on the system just install the new SSD and then use the restore CD's that should come with the system. However some of these do not have restore CD's anymore and use a hidden partition on the HDD to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
