I have not bought this SSD at Amazon, but short at a large electronics store, but I want to learn about the installation type for all owners with a laptop Lenovo IdeaPad Z710. The retrofit is very easy through the existing service door (almost the whole bottom of the laptop, which can be released with 3 screws, and then a little bit to be shifted away from the battery compartment). It is clear that before the power supply and battery must be disconnected. After removing the service door you can see the built-in 2.5-inch FP. This is screwed with four small screws on a bracket and attached to a SATA cable. Be careful when disconnecting the cable, it looks very fragile. After that, mount the old FP connect to the new SSD (four screws) and glue in the case of the Sandisk adapter frame below, because it is slightly smaller (7mm) than the old FP (9mm) and build everything back. Previously I have dubbed the operating system with EZ Gig IV of the 1TB FP on the 480 GB SSD. This Prg. obtained via the Software Dashboard. The link to it is included as a map of the SSD. If this Prg. is open (Dashboard), you can see the bottom center a link with which you can install the software Ez Gig IV (clones Software). When installing the Dashboard software I had to turn off my virus program before the installation is otherwise always been aborted. Use After cloning (default, and select only the source and destination drive correctly I could even start OneKeyRecovery function of Lenovo Ideapad Z710, both Windows 8.1 and in front of the boot with the OneKeyRecovery button. This means that he also hidden partitions copied correctly. The size difference of the old and the new FP was not an issue. So far, everything is working properly.
