You've stated you're currently using hybrid HDD and you're asking the meaning of Hybrid? :/

If you're asking what's the meaning of Hybrid drive:

Yes, it's possible to clone your OS and or everything (depends on your SSD capacity). These utility are included only for various brand/capacity which I couldn't remember. Cheers  nod.gif

Hi guys, I have a new 240GB Intel SSD here, and I have a notebook with 2 hard disk slot (Drive 1 contain OS and applications, Drive 2 contain only movies).

So I plan to move everything from Drive 1 to the new SSD using Intel migration software to continue using my windows and all its applications with it.

The problem now is I do not have a USB to SATA cable. Is it possible for me to remove Drive 2 and replace it with the new SSD, and then do the migration process? And finally taking the replace the Drive 1 with the SSD, and put the Drive 2 back to its original position.

Try to use native Driver from Intel or AMD, depends on your mobo.
Msachi = default AHCI driver from microsoft, its stable but it isn't optimized as much as Intel/AMD AHCI driver.

can u point any download page for me to download the driver? One more question, should I install Intel Rapid Storage Technology?

So I just need to go to intel's website and download this? https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Des...E+RST)&lang=eng

will it overwrite the msachi? or does it just leave msachi there and activate iastor for my ssd?

btw, i have 2 internal hd in my notebook (1 Intel SSD, 1 WD 500GB)
