Been 'thinking' about getting an SSD since posting here for advice on a new build in late 2015 - in fact somebody did say it would complete the spec.
System (left, but here are the details):
W7 Pro, SP1, 32-bit
Gigabyte GA-Z97-D3H mobo (latest BIOS, F9)
Intel Core i5 5675C 3.1GHz CPU (Broadwell)
4GB DDR3-1600 RAM
500GB Hitachi SATA3 Travelstar HDD
Intel Iris Pro Graphics
Originally I'd have gone for Samsung 850 but now I'm more inclined to use NVMe. The M.2 slot is PCIe but only 10Gb/s.
The PCIe slots are:
1x16 running at x16 (PCIe 3.0); 1x16 running at x4 (PCIEX4); 2x1
(PCIEX4 and x1 conform to PCIe 2.0 standard.)
So, with the Lycom adapter board, could I run a Samsung 960 (tempted by the Pro - I know, but at my age I might as well spend the money)
or 961 in this system?
So far as I can see it should be quite easy to clone the HDD using Macrium Reflect or EaseUS.
