i have a laptop and it is very very easy for me to swap hard drives in and out
if needed. i just needed a sighted person there for the first time to show me
what pannel to unscrew and i got it from there.

hi, yeah, this is a laptop. so it's going to have to be a pro to do it. if
it were a desktop, that's simple enough. lol. used to mess around with that
sort of thing all the time. but in laptops, it's way harder.

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.

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!
