Hello all, Ive done some searching around the Forums and this seems like a great place for info. While ive seen some posts regarding SATA, AHCI, and SSD's I did not see a thread that addressed this specific concern. My buddy just bought a new laptop. It has an OEM install of Windows 8, and Office 2013. He recently bought a SSD to boost the performance of his new laptop & needs my help with installation. My first thought was to make a clone img (CloneZilla etc..) of the existing install, to make the process as painless as possible. With an SSD one would want to enable AHCI in BIOS prior to install though, and I'd immagine the existing build does not contain the required driver. - Has anyone run into this scenario? Would I be better off obtaining his OEM licenses and building from scratch?
