Just a thought but, did the SSDs come with its own software to "clone" to the new drive? Mine did, though I chose to do a fresh install.

Swapping a lot of my users HDs to SSDs. I've been doing this after the user leaves for the day, connecting the drive via SATA, and cloning. ~40GB, and takes me about 2 hours each. Need to a way to speed this up. These are all laptops which the user almost always takes home. Is there a product that will seed a drive over the lan during the day, then do one last incremental/verify to the cloned drive when I'm ready for the final switch? Then I can do most of the cloning during the day and limit user down time.
