ASUS N53SV-XV1 SSD Installation

[MakingTrevenue]

I have an ASUS N53SV-XV1 running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I just bought a solid state hybrid drive (Seagate Momentus XT 750GB, ST750LX003) and I need to replace the current hard drive. I need to know how to "transfer" my Windows 7 and everything else I've ever downloaded on the hard drive to my new SSD. Can someone please help me? I know there is software and stuff for it, but I don't know what works well. Please help me with anything you can, thanks!!!

My choice would be to use Acronis's free premium imaging/cloning suite which comes with any Seagate drive to directly clone from the HD to SSD.

Use Auto cloning, as described in the Manual on the download page here: Seagate Acronis cloning free util

Other options here also seem to work well: SSD - Install and transfer the Operating System

Finally if you are not satisfied with cloning or imaging, you can always follow these steps to get a perfect Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7.
