Fairly Easy, but the external HDD enclosure is garbage

내 문제

I was running out of space on my 250gb drive constantly and didn't want to have an external drive connected to my laptop.

The replacement guide was great, very easy and straightforward. However, there was no guidance on how to migrate your existing data from your existing drive to the new drive. A couple of Google searches later I had my answer.

Plan ahead for all sets. The "External USB SATA Enclosure" provided in the kit didn't work, or perhaps I was unable to slot the drive correctly. It's pretty much impossible to tell if you've got it lined up correctly due to the way it's made. I would either not buy the kit, or buy a HDD Enclosure separately. I was lucky that I had an external drive I could leverage.
