[QUOTE="iWheeler, post: 1586724, member: 212338"] No i know how i could get an OS on the SSD but that would require me re installing everything again which was my problem i mentioned in the original post, i was basically trying to find the best way to get the system files onto the SSD and everything else on the other HDD without re-installing anything. I've researched how to do it but it came up with all sorts of methods and people commenting on "how to" articles saying it doesn't work, i just wanted clarification from you guys if the method i've chosen will work as you've really helped me out in the past. Oh and the kit to change the optical drive for an SSD comes with a external USB case for the optical drive, booting from the install disk wasn't mentioned so thought i'd ask. [/QUOTE]
