cattscratch Check your UEFI & find Fast Boot option. Is it enabled or disabled?

Yes. Enabled

Offcourse la
Look at the price differences

Samsung 850 EVO 250GB - RM400
Kingston UV400 240GB - RM245

Yes
But the best method is still a clean installation of Windows

State the brand & model number of your laptop
Some laptop can only fit half-height mSATA cards, so need to make sure which can fit in your laptop

Alright, M14x R2 do use full sized mSATA
The short term warranty is kinda risky though

SSD rarely fails but we have to remember the lemon's law

Jayi I know your budget is only RM300 but I advise you to add a few more bucks to get a full warranty 240GB/250GB/256GB mSATA instead
120GB/128GB is way too small for current use unless you don't play games at all

Kingston MS200 240GB is available for RM348 with 3 year manufacturing warranty

Clean install is always the best choice compared to cloning

Yes, but not advisable
There are lots of 240GB/250GB/256GB in the market now that is quite cheap nowadays

Don't know. I've used lots of SSD's over the years but the longest is about 2 year and haven't had any failed SSD

Used from the cheapest SSD Kingston HyperX 128GB till the most expensive Samsung 950 Pro 512GB
They all run just fine

Samsung 850 EVO 500GB (RM689) - http://www.lelong.com.my/samsung-850-evo-5...7-07-Sale-P.htm

Yes

But if no budget contrains, jump ahead to the NVME bandwagon like me with Samsung 950 Pro

That is the Pro version
The SSD comes at a cheap price because of the 3 year warranty instead of the original 5 year

You can use the adapter like in the image below
I'm using the same adapter on my Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gaming G1 WIFI-BK with the Samsung 950 Pro
You can use it in the PCI-E x16 slot. Works perfectly
Bought it from eBay for RM24 - http://www.ebay.com/itm/111980528613

Nothing can be done
Or change to a different ITX board with M.2 slot onboard

What's all this hoo-haa about Intel 600P?
Is it better than Samsung 950 Pro?

Real question by the way, not sarcasm

I'm not a Kingston hater but truthfully, V300 & HyperX Fury is a piece of crap
My stepmother bought a HyperX Fury 120GB & it dies in less than 6 month
She only use her laptop for work purposes. After waiting 1 month for RMA, Kingston replaced it with a new unit & then the new unit died again after 2 months

Their SAVAGE SSD lineup on are much more reliable albeit at a higher price

ASUS N56VZ uses 12.7MM DVD Drive
So you should look for a 12.7MM Dual HDD Caddy

Who on earth need LEDs on SSD?
http://www.avexir.com/product/s100.html

If on RAM then normal la, but on SSD?

Like I said earlier, LED's on SSD is useless really. For RAMs, ok la but only to those RAMs with LED that show the activity of the PC such as Crucial Ballistix Tracer & Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer

Those with static LEDs are useless, more to bling only
