As a computer newb, changing my laptop's single ssd for a larger capacity drive seemed monumental and stressful.
Not only was this slick and well edited, it was clear and not a single step was missed.
Liked and subscribed. THANK YOU
Sol, awesome video. I particularly appreciated how you've used freeware for all of this and stepped through using it - some of the apps look Linux based so make me a bit nervous to take a crack at witn my exclusively Windows background, but once you use them, it' pretty clear they're just utilities and not scary.
really great work, thanks for the effort put in this video , one advice, timestamps and keep the laptop disassembly, so people can skip if they want.
Thank you and keep up the good work
Thank you for the comment and thanks for watching! I appreciate the timestamp advice and would consider it for my next video. Thanks again for the suggestion!
Anther great video. I was just asking for a tutorial on this, and here you've made it already! I was just wondering, after doing all this, would it be ok to add another SSD in the second position as expanded storage? Would that mess anything in the process up?
Also, any updates, bios or anything, would that mess up anything with the laptop?
Thank you so much!
Thank you for the video. It is all great except I do not have two slots for two SSD. I don't know what to do to copy over the data from the one SSD to the other without having the second slot. Do you have any kind of instructions for something like that?
Hi there, I am very grateful for your video. I am installing a 4tb ssd on my ASUS ROG G1512_2nd2LW. I am using your guide to clone my 1TB C:Drive to my 4tb D:Drive. When I am using Clonezilla, the disk source that is used shows only the empty 4TB D:Drive. Do you have any suggestions on how to show the source drive for C:Drive? Thanks
Hi, what temperature do you have on that 970 evo plus?
Don't you need a heatsink on that?
I consider upgrading my default ssd, and I heard that 970 has a high temperature compared to other ssd.
Also what do you think about
Kingston KC3000 1TB M.2
I know it can't be as fast as specification said on the g15 ae, but I can use it in the future laptop when I change the current one(probably in 3/4 years).
Hello, thank you for the comment. I have not had a chance to fully capture temps on the Samsung drive but I have experienced thermal throttling several times after long gaming sessions so I am in the process of getting heatsinks and thermal pads. I would also do some comparison in temps and see if my throttling issue is resolved. At this time I'm suspecting the drive further from the fan (slot 2) is the one that is getting very hot as i have 2x2TB installed in my laptop. As far as the Kingston drive, I don't have any personal experience with it but based on reviews sounds like a solid purchase. If you do happen to purchase please drop me a line with your thoughts about it. Thank you for watching!
Free software to clone disck and extend its size
Hello Sol Does Tech. I have managed to fix it all, I managed to clone and move partitions. The gparted software wasn’t working for me so I used a different software however even before this I was running into one major issue. The original SSD works fine, no issues, after cloning, the new SSD has problems with powering off. So it turns off when I hold the power button, however when I shut down through windows, the laptop says it’s shutting down, few seconds later, it seems to have restarted instead. I do want to wipe my old hard drive but I can see that there are definitely going to be issues in the future so I’ll probably keep that one too but use this ssd as my main one to avoid issues, I still would like a fix for the shut down problem if possible
Hello, I think that is a good plan, I also kept my original 512GB and set it aside in case i ever need it.👍
would you be able to wipe the original 512gb ssd and put it in the second slot as even more storage space ? if so ? what would you call that process so i can do more research on how to achieve that outcome ?
Hello, thank you for the question. Yes you can do that and use the original 512GB as a secondary drive. you should be able to just place it into that 2nd slot, make sure you boot from the larger new drive and once you are in windows you can use the Disk Manager to format the older drive and assign it a drive letter.
Hi, great video but I need your help please. I installed kingston kc3000 2Tb but the computer don’t use all the speed max used is 4 and the m2 is 8. Can you tell what I need to do? Thanks in advance
are you talking about the PCIe lanes? the kingston kc3000 2Tb SSD is a PCIe Gen 4 NVME m.2 X4...
the Sequential Read/Write speeds for the 2TB KC3000 model is 7,000/7,000MB/s,
Question would Clonezilla still work if the original drive is partitioned?
Hello. yes clonezilla would pickup the partitions and copy them over. Thank you for watching!
Question do it have to be a specific flash drive or any flash drive would work
Hello, the iso images are very small so technically almost any flash drive 1GB and over would work but I like to recommend at least 5GB so the drive could be used for other things like OS installs. Thank you for the question and thanks for watching!
@@SolDoesTech Noted thanks man
Hello, how are you? I have an Asus ROG strix G15, which came with 1TB storage, I bought additional two terabytes today, so I put that ssd in and used a crucial tool to clone it into the new ssd, then I changed the boot order to the new ssd, as my plan is to use the old one for additional storage of files, now this is where I ran into a problem, if I try booting from my old ssd, it works completely fine, however when I boot from the new ssd, it runs into a black screen, I personally thought it was an issue with display, so I did fn+display button, and a white bar on the right popped up then disappeared, so now I think it’s a problem with windows itself in the clone, thing is I tried cloning 3 times and ran into the same issue, so my next plan is to use a different software if reinstalling windows doesn’t work on this, of course I want to keep my apps so if this works I know I can use a windows reinstall as my final option but do you have any ideas or suggestions on how I can go about this, as I really don’t want to end up losing my software
Also, I still have my old files and working ssd with me, so I can always clone from there
Hey I try to Gparted the Ssd but everytime I try to boot it goes to a black screen should I try to download Linux
Hello, did Windows boot after you used clonezilla and before you used GParted?
@@SolDoesTech Yes it did but also my laptop doesn’t shut down I have to force shutdown now
@@parisc68 Hello, so the fact that windows does boot is a good a thing, I am not sure about the shutdown issue. take a look here gparted.org/display-doc.php?name=gparted-live-manual&lang=C#gparted-live-tips-on-booting-gparted-live see if it could help with getting GParted started. At worst case scenario you still have the original drive which is untouched so you can always revert back and re run the process.
