I've heard and read different things about switching my operating system to a SSD from the current spinning disc HD.
I've read about software that transfers all etc. as a way to move the operating system from the existing spinning disc to the SSD. But why? And I suppose there's and answer..Its just that I don't understand.. or know it.
Can't i connect my new SSD / start computer and then specify drive letter/ next insert Win 7 64 upgrade install disc and turn off machine/ next restart machine and follow install instructions that i get from the disc including Custom install regarding choice of disc and I choose the new SSD drive letter / next formatting that disc and click Next. And then I'll name computer and setup intial user account.
That won't work? Or its not the best method?
Please set me straight.
