Upgrade (SSD to SSD) on Windows 7
Yes, the time has come to install a bigger/faster SSD. I have a 80GB and am forever clearing temp files, etc. to to keep my disk space indicator from turning red. A clean install is not of interest - would take way too much time to re-establish my tools. I'm leaning towards an Intel 535 120GB. That'll give plenty of OS partition space (will replace machine next year).
I have a 100MB System partition and a ~74MB Boot partition on the existing SSD. I also have an E drive for data which is an Intel RST RAID 1 volume on two 500GB drives.
I've been doing some Googling and read about using Macrium or Paragon Migrate to migrate from HDD to SSD. Am posting this thread to get specific suggestions on doing an SSD to SSD upgrade. I was going to do a Windows image restore, but reading forums here lead me to believe that I'll better luck using one of those 3rd party tools. Hoping someone here with experience can share specific recommended instructions.
Thanks, Chris
