Hi.
Need some advice, please.
I took Mark Guim's advice in his column and bought the Dell Inspiron 15 7559 and installed the upgrades he recommended.
Installed extra RAM and new SSD:
(Samsung 850 EVO M.2 250GB SATA III Internal SSD and
Crucial 8GB 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3L ).
The next step is to use the Samsung Data Migration tool to move the system files to the newly installed SSD and then partition the old drive for programs And files.
(SSD becomes C: drive, old drive becomes D: drive)
Now, I want to use some software like Zinstall to move all of my programs and data from my OLD PC to this new PC - But do I do that BEFORE or AFTER I make this partition on the new computer?
Any advice with this would be great.
Thanks!
