Folks,
I just got a EVO 850 500G SSD I am going to replace a 500G HD on my laptop.
I have been looking at how to move the disk image from the HD to the SSD.
My first look was at dd, as that is what I have used to generate images in
the
past. But this is the first time I have moved a bootable disk image from a
HD to an SSD.
Looking for guidance here. Both disk are the same size, though the HD is
not that loaded yet, so if I needed I could shrink the image on the source
before putting it on the target.
Or would I be better just to do a new install and move my home directory to
the SSD?
