Two Choices.....

[Shelster]

after a recent forced upgrade I now have the option to be able to use an M2 based SSD and have been thinking of expoiting that facility.

Have been looking at a suitable drive and was wondering what is the difference between this one and this one

From what I can see, there is only the difference of the second one comes with a 5 year warranty as opposed the a 2 year on the 1st one. The words about performance are the same.

Am tempted to get the lower priced one if there is no difference. Can live with ony a 2 year warranty

Went for the cheaper one of the two.....realise the 950 is newer but for me it will be sufficient.

Now just need to work out a procedure for doing the swap. Current c drive is 256 so no issues with size. Am thinking the following

1 create clone image of current drive
2 switch off and add me drive
3 switch back on and enable drive in bios and then check it is seen in windows
4 restore image from step 1 to new m2 drive
5 switch off and disconnect original boot drive
6 switch back on, changing boot sequence in bios
7 enjoy slight speed increase

Any recommendations on suitable cloning software? And are my steps right too?
