[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1687757, member: 46727"] Might be easier to use software such as [URL="https://bombich.com/"]Carbon Copy Cloner[/URL] to clone your boot drive, user folder, and other data to the new SSD. The SSD will then become your boot drive and your older drive can be used for data and other storage. Most smaller apps can be moved without a problem, however, other apps that are more complex must be reinstalled. Cloning assures that everything will be properly moved to the new drive. [/QUOTE]
