Simply watched a few seconds of the vid considering I'thou on mobile, but I noticed that he was using an Acronis product - my personal preference is CloneZilla, but that's just me. A few points to watch out for:

• brand certain you are copying from the old to the new. In nigh programs information technology'south remarkably easy to swap the source and destination accidentally - causing you to overwrite all of your information with naught.

• check how the sizing of things works out. Easiest mode to clone is to copy a small HDD to a large SSD - that way, everything fits easily. Because of the pricing at the moment, your SSD is most probable smaller than your HDD - then make sure that the infinite used on your HDD will fit within your SSD. You lot just can't copy 300GB into 250GB of space. You can ever move data elsewhere, or use your HDD every bit a secondary drive, but make sure the data isn't present when you try to clone the bulldoze.

• defragment your HDD first - sequential reads are faster, although I think because it'south doing information technology block-past-cake it may not matter. I've seen differing opinions.

• back up your stuff. If yous're working with the hardware containing your only re-create of data, you're actually playing with burn.
