Hello everyone, just thought i would share this, if anyone else has done so before... Sorry here it is again. I recently had a hard drive that was on its way out (multiple restarts to get booted then finally no more) picked up a stand alone duplicator that was recommended on another post, and a Sandisk SSD. Hard drive was able to "backup" to the new SSD.
What i wanted to share was on amazon there are the adapters to mount the smaller ssd into the original hard drive location if anyone is doing the swap to ssd.
