    Booting From M2.SSD


    I'm totally confused on this, as I'm old school computers and not this new stuff that is out there. Here's what I know. HP told me that with my Z220 Workstation that if I upgrade the BIOS that I could boot from an M2 SSD. So tonight I looked at my BIOS and saw all my drives inside. I don't have the M2 yet, but I did noticed that the Boot Manager said that it's going to boot from Windows Boot Manager. The people that I have talked with always ask me which OS am I using and I tell them Win 10 and they smile. I found out later that Win 10 has what is required to boot from M2 SSD. So I figure I would come here and check before I spent my money on one. While I'm here, does anyone know of a good M2 SSD adapter with a heat sink?
    Thanks
    Dan

  2. Migration from Hdd to m2.SSD

    Recently I have purchased a new laptop (hp probook 450 G4) and a new original windows 10 home edition and now I want to upgrade my 1 TB Hdd to a new m2 ssd and my laptop supports another slot for the m2 ssd so I can run both
    the m2 ssd & hdd at the same time but I will make the m2 ssd the boot drive and the hdd will be the data drive.
    MY Question is how can I migrate system drive to the new m2 ssd without the need to reinstall windows or any other installed programs and there is another thing, when I checked the disk management I found 3 recovery partitions will I have to
    migrate them too or I have to migrate the system drive only

    2 ssd migration to larger m2 ssd

    Hi The

    If you can connect both M2's to your system then you can clone the old Ms onto the new one - most systems do not have a second M2 port - you should check to see if that is possible . . .

    If you can connect both drives to your system then the free version of Macrium Reflect would be a good choice to perform the cloning . ..

    If you cannot connect both drives, then you will be unable to clone the old drive and your only choice will be to backup your data and clean install Windows 10 onto the new M2 SSD
