In this episode of "Ben's Tech Support!" I show you how to upgrade from an old mechanical hard drive (HDD) to a speedy solid state drive (SSD) in a small form factor desktop computer. I show you how to accomplish this task using 2 different methods: a migration method using the disk cloning software called DiskGenius, and a fresh install method by booting from Windows installation media.

In this video, I also mention that I have created videos on how to backup your data and how to create Windows installation media. I am still in the process of editing those videos so they are not ready yet. When those videos are finished and uploaded I will include the links in this description. Thank you for your patience.

"Ben's Tech Support!" is a YouTube video series created and hosted by Benjamin Sullivan that provides tutorials on various computer and technology projects.

08:12 - The Migration Method (Using DiskGenius)
