Cloning can be extremely accessible (google drive image xml).
As far as installation goes, given that you're working with an ssd, you should be able to plug it in yourself. Pay careful attention to the cables plugged into your existing disk, track them back to their source, and find matching ones for the ssd.
Once that's done, you should be able to boot your machine, clone the existing drive (make sure your current partitions are smaller or of an equal size to the ssd - this is the most complicated part imho) and remove your current hdd (or just reformat
it). The part you will certainly need sighted help for is getting the system to boot from the ssd once its installed; do a google search for "change boot order" or something similar.
P.S:
This applies to desktops only. If you're on a laptop, get a professional to do
it for you (especially because laptops don't usually fit multiple drives).
Good luck.

Subject: Re: [Audyssey] got my new solid state drive in
Hey, how accessible is the cloning process. I am seriously considering getting an SSD for this machine. But to pay someone to do the cloning, can get expensive. Let alone, I'm probably going to have to get someone to put the drive in. I don't know my
way around the insides of this machine, and I don't want to blow any fuses or worse, the microchips. LOL.

hey i got my new crucial.com 250gig solid state drive installed. I am very impressed. My computer runs much faster now. Sometimes NVDA would lag and it would take awhile for games to load even in windows10 pro 64bit on this hp elitebook 6930p
laptop. But now its so snappy and quiet it is unbelievable! It cost $79 from amazon. everything from my favorite audiogames to screen readers to software voice engines load so much quicker. ms-word loads in less than a half a second. Its almost like
I turned my computer into a partial super-fast tablet or notetaker! so guys if you want your audio games loading super super fast and if you want your laptop or desktop to feel like a superComputer then I very much recommend getting an ssd and using
the free macrium reflect software along with a USB to sata cable to clone the old spinning hard drive to the new ssd. your whole computer and audio games and screen reader will thank you for it!
