Thank you so much! I was afraid I would mess up and lose everything but it was incredibly easy and worked liked a charm. Can't thank you enough!

It's easy like that, the point is when you don't have and don't want to buy an nvme enclosure how you go around doing it.

What if my 2011 Toshiba A660 does not have nvme? Am i limited to sata3 adapter for nvme? This "tutorial" looks like - if you want your car to go faster, fill it with high octane gasoline. Modern high-end laptops of course have opportunities for much improves, but what with laptops that have to be upgraded instead of making top model from middle-end model when you realize you forgot to buy top model?

[dantejimenez]

I see it brings over everything but does that include drivers?

[jeremythreat]

I'm getting one of these enclosures

Can you also do this off of a thumb drive as well if money's kinda tight?

Hi! I did the cloning following the exact same steps using Reflect Free but once it was done, I noticed that the total size of the new disk is 245 GB less. So I used TreeSize to find out which files were not cloned. It looks like there's something called "System Volume Information" which is exactly 245 GB which is missing in the new disk. Can I still swap the SSD's or what should I do next?

What happens if i upgrade the m.2 sdd without windows 10, will i still be able to power on the laptop and reinstall it again?
