This video is very helpful. I have a question though, after I clone Windows 10 to my SSD. But my games are stored on my HDD. Will the games boot faster or do I need to move them to my SSD as well?
What if I only want to use this as a storage for games and such. Do I still need to clone it? I already have an 500g SSD for my normal OS but need more space for games and such.
If you only want it as a storage drive, then you don't need to clone it. However, you will still need to go into Disk Manager to activate it with a New volume and Format the drive.
Good morning ... Can you pls infm how did you clone the disk ? I have a Lenovo X1 Extreme and I am not beeing able to "see" the WD SN750 in a way I can clone it... How is that done ?
@@nickscomputerfix Tks a lot. Will try. I have Acronis but for some reason the cloning do not look to be well done and the machine do not power up properly. I have a Lenovo X1 Extreme and want to change the Disk to a bigger one.
Trying to use this SSD as a primary drive. Installed clean copy of Winfows 10 when this drive was a secondary. Restarted and it says "operating system not installed". Is there something i may have not done?
You can not boot into Windows with a ISO file. First the Windows setup files need to be extracted from the ISO file. Then you need to actually install Windows and go through the setup first and then the M.2 drive will be bootable into Windows.
@@irama9605 I am in the same boat, no screw. I took the nut out and used that as the screw to hold the thing in place, but I guess that you are supposed to have a screw. Huh
Hello, I have got a prebuilt PC HP Omen, and I'm trying to replace the SSD NVME western (only 1.9k speeds) I did not know where to look for it other than on the motherboard. I finally found a cover that said [SSD2] it was a plastic cover, I took that plastic cover off with small screw to only see a small squishy pad... So I don't know where the SSD is I'm actually using... Or am I screwed in replacing the drive and need a new motherboard entirely? Squishy pad was square-like... I have looked up the model # for my SSD and it shows one that looks like the one in the video but I'm not seeing it in my PC/motherboard... Please help X_X
Hey man, quick question. I have a new M.2 SSD drive coz my old one is failing........ Can I just take out the old m.2 and install the new one? Basically, i want a clean install of windows 10 and just re install all the drivers on this new m.2 SSD drive but I am just worried that if I take out the old m.2 SSD, my pc wouldn't boot since the updated drivers for my GPU, CPU, RAM, etc. is on that old m.2 drive. I don't know if you get what I mean.
If you just swap the old M.2 SSD with a new M.2 SSD and do nothing else, the new one will not have Windows OS on it, and your computer will just power on and give you a OS not found error message. You need to either clone your old M.2 to new M.2 or install a fresh clean Windows 10 OS on new M.2 via a flash drive or DVD.
Hi there :) can you plz help me and tell me how to install my nvme sn770 in my laptop it says during the windows installation that it wants a driver? it can see it in the bios but during installation it dont? thx in advance Allan Denmark (btw nice videos :) )
Suggestions: 1) Make sure you have the adapter card inserted into the correct slot on mother board and that it's seated properly. 2) Your computer might need a BIOS update. Check your computer brand support site for updated BIOS version. If they have a newer BIOS version consider updating to the latest version. And see if that resolves your computer issue.
@@nickscomputerfix that's good to know because most laptops for sale today had small SSD. Not enough for what i need to share music files on SoulSeek. I'm going install that on my next laptop!
If you have easy access to the hard drive or SSD, than replace it with a bigger storage size SSD, 1TB, 2TB, 3TB, or 4TB. Or you can always add a external USB SSD or USB flash drive (it will be slower storage access with an external SSD or USB flash drive).
