lenovo y510p question about hard drive and wireless card

I have the lenovo y510p 2 gpu's, 16gb ram, 1TB hdd, and 24GB mssd. I have 3 questions (please answer each specifically):

1. I want to replace the HDD with my SSD (2.5" 256gb SSD). Do i have to remove the 24gb mssd or can the SSD run with the mssd?
2. How do i transfer all of my programs and windows to the SSD? Do i have to transfer everything from the 1TB hdd and then the booting files from the mssd or just the 1TB hdd?
3. My wireless card now can't find my 5ghz wifi at home, at the moment i use the 2.4ghz. Should i buy a wireless card and replace it? is 5ghz that much better? if so, can you please recommend me a card that will work with 5ghz as i have no experience with those.

Thanks for your help!

 

1. The SSD can run with the MSSD, however you would have to uninstall Expresscache as it would then have no use in caching your files. You could use the MSSD for Linux or as a Storage Partition.
2. Intel Migration Software is pretty good: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/con...g/IDMS_15056_en-US.exe&lang=eng&Dwnldid=19324
3. Which Wireless card are you using?

 

1. how do you uninstall expresscache and what does it do, allow it to boot up?
2. would i only have to copy my 1TB HDD or the mssd too?
3. intel centrino wireless-N 2230

 

1. Expresscache copies your most used programs and then loads them from the SSD when appropriate. However the cache is volatile and does not affect the contents of the hard drive.
2. Only the 1TB HDD.
3. I have an old, primitive router so upgrading my WiFi card is useless for me. However be aware that your stock bios might be whitelisted, so grabbing a modded bios might be useful.

 

thanks. Last question, can i just put a new, fresh windows 8 onto my SSD. Could i go into recovery mode on my laptop, plug in my SSD and let it "repair" the ssd

 

thanks alot for your answers. I'm going to install the SSD very soon. How would i format the mssd into something like a USB format for storage only. I'm going to replace the HDD and leave the mssd as a on-board memory device. Is this the best way to use an mssd with an ssd? and the lenovo y510p already runs in ahci so i won't need to do anything complicating right?
