Thanks to all who posted on this thread. I am not really a hardware person, afraid of screwing up these kind of things. But, I took the plunge. Followed the advice here, used Samsung SSD 500 GB, cloned using Macrium Reflect. Velcro'd the SSD to the old HD (great idea, Bert!) Amazingly simple.
But, one problem, I replaced a hard drive that was 150 GB, cloned it to the 500 GB Samsung. But, the computer now running with the SSD is showing the drive to be only 150 GB, not the 500 GB. Where did I go wrong? How do I fix this?
