I am sure there is a good reason why after a few months, Windows computers just seem to keep working harder and harder and get slower and slower. I know it is because of all the stuff we put into them, but I have always kept my computers cleaned up and it still seems to happen. I am hoping that changing to ssd drives in both my computers will remove some of that issue; right now it seems to be working.
I just replaced the hdd on my desktop last night and used Farstone's DriveClone 11 Free Version (http://www.farstone.com/software/drive-clone.php). This software is easier for the non-geek because it does one thing exceeding well--clone your disk. It also has a "fast" mode which I used to back up my ~700 Gb of files in only about an hour. The only thing I had trouble with was getting the computer to recognize the ssd simply because I am not really into this stuff. I did a bit of googling and found how-to sites on how to use disk manager to assign a new drive letter and then I was fine.
Another issue I had was in physically installing the ssd in the computer. I went to a computer store and a guy simply gave me a plastic 2.5" to 3.5" chassis. This was helpful but Acer bolts the hdd up against the side of the case and doesn't use the traditional horizontal stacked configuration any more. I ended up installing the ssd on the plastic chassis and then simply using wire ties to hold the whole configuration in the slot where the old "massive" 3.5" hdd had been. As this computer just sits and never moves, I think that will be just fine. If the idea of doing that bothers you, then you may wish to open up your computer and see if you can find the correct 2.5" to 3.5" adapter. I scoured Amazon and could find nothing that had the correct configuration of drilled and tapped holes to mount in my Acer. (I needed to be able to mount to the bottom of the ssd adapter.)
If you are contemplating replacing your hdd in either a laptop or desktop, the time has come. Prices have gotten reasonable and the technology is mature. I can sit in my home office in complete silence, no longer listening to that annoying hard drive always working away--it is amazing how nice silence can be.
In summary here is what you need:
1. Find a ssd you like. I recommend a name brand with a large installed base so that you can capitalize on others experiences. I have a Crucial in my laptop and a Sandisk in the desktop and am pleased with both. I went a little more budget on the laptop but stepped up on the desktop and got the best: the Sandisk Extreme Pro. You can't beat a 10 year warranty. Computer years are like dog years so a 10 year warranty is like a "lifetime". Also, get the largest capacity you can afford.
2. Get the ssd enclosure. You will need this enclosure because you have to have a way to connect the computer to the new ssd in order to transfer the system from one hard drive to another. In other words, you put the new ssd in the enclosure, transfer all your stuff to the ssd via the usb port on your computer, and then remove your old hdd and replace it with the new ssd. I got a Sabrent and it was fine. I didn't even bother to put the cover on as all you really need is the usb adapter. Search Amazon for "hdd enclosure 2.5 inch".
3. Get the migration software. Again, I used the free Farstone DriveClone 11 and was really pleased. I downloaded others but the Farstone is easiest for non-geeks if all you are doing is cloning.
4. Set aside some time and take the plunge. While pricey, making the change removes a huge annoyance (noise) for those of us who live on our computers and it also speeds up booting and working with large files. My computers are fairly new so if you have older computers, you may want to do more research.
I so love the silence. The speed is nice too!
I know it's sad, but I'm in lust with this drive. I'm parked at home recovering from a surgery so I've had time to really put it through it's paces. Now, instead of putting my laptop to sleep when I set it aside, I shut down since boot-time and login are so fast. Launches of my standard apps are nearly instantaneous with everything I've tried: Word, Excel, Chrome, Firefox and VMware Fusion. I'd say that Fusion has benefited the most; whether I start a Linux, Windows XP or Windows 7 VM they all run as if they're on native "fairly decent" hardware.
Installation was easy, although it took a few hours to complete. First I got a fresh Time Machine backup using my external USB 3.0 drive. I removed the itty-bitty case screws and back cover and backed out two screws holding a bracket intended to keep the HD stationary. I took out the old drive, applied the little stick-on frame supplied with the SSD to improve the fit and put it all back together.
I connected my USB backup drive and rebooted while holding (iirc) command+r. I was prompted for the wifi encryption key I use, then It took a few minutes to download and boot the recovery/utility image from Apple.
It found the backup disk, but since the SSD arrived unformatted it wasn't presented as a target to restore to. A glance at the top of the screen showed the Disk Utility menu. Moments later the SSD was partitioned and formatted using what had been the default choice from Disk Utility - basically, it was the "make this a bootable device" option although I don't recall the moniker. I started the restore of my 200GB of data, made sure the power was connected, and after about a 3-hour wait I booted into digital nirvana. Seriously, it's like I have a brand new, screaming-fast laptop.

Thanks!
Gracias a Amazon, valió pagar por el envió al día siguiente. Rápido y seguro.
So choose SanDisk: Heard reviews checked benchmark. They are using marvel controller in PRO drives so it is as fast as other samsung and crucial drives.
I had hard time to clone this drive with HDD. I was having issue with dynamic partition. If you have simple C drive Acronis WD authorised software is enough. I tried all ( acronis, AOMEI backupper, Macrium) but no software will help you with dynamic partition. you have to use dynamic disk converter to convert the dynamic disc to basic disk.
After that any you tube video can you help you with easy cloning methods of any software.
But i really like MACRIUM. it is amazing software and AOMEI dynamic disk converter.
I did not run my bench mark. but my PC boot time was 12-15 minutes. right now it is just 20 seconds. can you believe that....ufffffffff.
installing software is blazingly fast.
In between sometime i got mouse stuck issue. it is not as smooth as samsung drive. But after few boots and making SSD as complete C drive now no problem.
But soon i m going to install the fresh OS into it. then check again the speed. i don't trust my 6 years old HDD sectors condition.
i make this fresh copy and use other HDD as RAID for backup.
BUT believe me SSD is much worth it than HDD as operating system.
It's about 10X faster than a conventional hard drive, easy to install and works like a charm. The best part is, wait for it, 10 year warranty! They seem to stand behind their product. We'll know as time goes on about that and I will adjust my review accordingly.
So far so good, I'm very happy with the speed.
NOTE: This DOES NOT come with any hardware. I had to find some screws off my old laptop for me to be able to add it to my PC case. :)
NOTE2: I read somewhere that since it's a 6GB/s drive you need a compatible 6GB/s SATA cable, well folks, that's a crock of you know what. Just Google: SATA 3Gb/s vs. 6Gb/s Cable Performance (Revisited) as Amazon seem not to like it when someone gives good advice through a web link.
