Great tutorial man this really helped, thank you.

I was able to restore my 9 year old Gateway laptop with a PNY SSD or Samsung SSD and i noticed such a hugh improvement in speed and performance boost. Boots up & shuts down fast when turning it on or off, Programs & files load up fast too. Literally the best thing without any moving parts and less stress for laptops.

Even using an SSD to boost up my PS4 console which also helped too, fan noise is greatly reduced and not stressing alot, plus games and apps load up faster.

The vast majority of people don't have a hard drive clone box. You just blew by the most crucial part of changing an old hard drive to a newer SSD drive.
