    Hey, I was just wondering if the Crucial MX100 512GB 2.5" SATA III and what would be a good way to go about getting the data that is on my current HDD onto the SSD.

    Do you want to transfer your copy of windows over as one complete image? If so, You should be able to use any Backup or image creating software. I think when i bought the MX100 512gb it came with a trial for one.

    I Suggest you just start from a fresh install of windows. But that's just me. You'll need a bootable windows USB stick.
