i feel ur frustration. me too. ordered on 8th of June, and from the order status, I only see my printer is ready. everything else date to order  rclxub.gif

i would have opt for retail purchase if i knew it would be like this.

but think about the bundled extras, i think a lil more wait is worth it
*
I rather choose buy retail if not really need those bundles,long wait is really not feel good.

Limitations:
The destination partition must be equal or larger than the source one.

that mean cant use since my destination ssd is 80gb while my source disk is 750gb?(although the os might just around 10gb)

If you take the path of actually cloning your existing hard drive's partition(s) over to the new SSD, you need to ensure you set the cloning software application, in our case it was Clonezilla, to resize the new partition on the target drive to size of the SSD.  Norton Ghost from Symantec has this setting selected by default but in the screen shots above, you can see how to set it up with Clonezilla.  Also, if your new SSD is actually smaller than the old hard drive, Clonezilla won't let you map the partition over, even if the data area is smaller.  In this case, Norton Ghost works a bit better and is in general a bit more elegant to work with.

means that norton ghost shud b my choice?Or i shud uses Macrium Reflect; Microsoft Image Backup (part of Windows 7); Paragon Drive Copy; and ShadowProtect?

How you managed to install SSD ? From my understanding your notebook warranty will be VOID if you install SSD in it

fren,its easy. just take out the bottom cover,take out the hdd then replaced with the ssd,just 5min work.
anything happen need send back to repair,just do the reverse job,how to void the warranty? blush.gif
