Hi DoctorMel,

Usually this goes pretty smoothly. There should be cloning software access included with the new solid-state drive. Download this on to the computer.

Temporarily use an adapter to connect the new drive to a USB port. Then use the software to clone the current C drive to the new SSD.

Turn the system off, physically swap the new SSD drive., and you should be good to go.
