Well, I dropped of the laptop yesterday at about 11am. I missed a call near 5pm so called them today and my laptop was ready.

They cloned my 128Gig SSD drive and copied it to a new 500Gig SSG.

Fantastic.

Pushed the start button and was at desktop in 11.87 seconds. Everything working fine.

$226.00 for 500Gig SSD and $99 for cloning and work. So $225 and pennies with tax.

Loving it

No idea what that works out in £'s and P's now (it used to be $2.70:£1 in the 1970's....last time it seemed to matter) BUT if you are happy! that is all that counts
5 beers and half past midnight here.
have fun

I use nothing but SSDs these days. Cloning is way too easy, and performance never ceases to impress.
