    Anyone know of a guide to simply clone the hdd onto an ssd and keep the msata as a second drive? I already have a 240GB intel 520 ssd and when I try to clone the drive with the intel data migration software it errors out saying 'drive cannot be found'.

    Can I just run the rapid drive tool to separate the drives and then clone? What changes do I make to boot from the new ssd rather than the msata?

    Confused and running out of hair.. http://forum.notebookreview.com/images/smilies/confused2.gif
