Preface:
The beschriebense installation I have carried out in parallel on 2 laptops, both times were exactly the same problems, and they could be gelößt both times in the manner described.
1. Initialize Hard Disk:
Unfortunately, the hard disk is not used immediately, it must first be on the Computer Management are "enabled". Open given the Start menu -> Right click on Computer - click> Administrative Tools -> Click the tab links Disk Management -> Select in the window at the bottom center, the SSD hard drive -> right click on the hard drive and hard disk initialize click
A context menu will pop up, click here the options you want and perform the initialization.
Now, the hard drive needs to be formatted to the Date Disk Management simply right-click on the memory Plata show the hard disk (right next to the media box) and select Formatting, at a Win7 Insterllation the Dateisstem NTFS should be selected here. I prefer the quick format does not select, but remains entirely up to the normal format takes about 15 minutes quick format about 1-2 min
Now that the hard disk should be ready initialized and displayed on the workstation
2. Drive Cloning:
In the Basic version, unfortunately, is no corresponding software installed to the SSD magician offered a download Norton Ghost, of which I do not recommend, since it is shareware and the Klonoption is disabled so that the Zeitvershwendung is.
Samsung itself has developed a perfect program, but has surprisingly not out. There is data migration tool and as far as I can tell only about the Samsung Support website available. Here one must first select the disk among the products, then click on the Support tab, and click again to find further downloads. As if that was not hidden enough would still click on Software and Data Migration tool download here.
The rest is now a breeze, simply execute the downloaded file and install, then start the program, the first step the current Windows partition (in 99% of cases C: /) to select, select the connected SSD as the destination drive in the next step and start . Click Now the entire drive will be cloned, that is after this process is an exact replica of C is: / drive to the SSD hard drive, which takes about 30-45 minutes. Now the old hard drive can be replaced and you can enjoy the desired Leistunsschub :)
3. Power:
The performance boost is tremendous my laptop (Acer TimelineX 5380 TG) boots now in 15sec is charged from power Fierefox with some tabs pass just 35sec, before these times were at or for 2 minutes and Battlefield 3 will now load level in 10 seconds that previously took about 2 minutes. But you should keep in mind that the performance boost is limited only to load operations, since HDD hard drives are the limiting factor, the graphics performance, etc. do not change.
4. Conclusion:
Now that I have it all working, I'm completely satisfied with my investment, but I give a deduction of points on the inadequate instructions, which unfortunately has given me a few hours work, I hope I can spare you that with this manual.
