Replacing the 1 TB hard drive with t TB SSD that has 1 TB Hard drive + 128 SSD
02-25-2021 03:16 PM

I am looking for how to replace the 1 TB Hard Drive with a 1 TB SSD in a computer that is has 1 TB Hard Drive plus a 128 SSD.
I know I can make a system info file or Clone the drive, but not sure where the Window 10 operating system is.
Can anyone help?

hi
You certainly have a 128gb m2 type SSD
it is directly on the motherboard
and a classic sata hard drive
Windows is installed on the SSD, which is the fastest
So the choice to replace the HDD with an SSD may not be the right one
