Download the Samsung Magician Software to check the details. I am also using this SSD. You can increase the Write and Speed aka the Turbo Mode. They do have secure erase in which that you factory reset the SSD.

Looks like might need spacer? My old hdd is not secured by screws, just the cover to hold it in place, 2 mm thinner might make new ssd wobbly inside? Everyone say ssd is a lot faster then hdd, don’t think need turbo mode? Lol Did you have problem with different thickness? Yup, it depends on people using Turbo. With and Without Turbo almost the same speed but can't really tell. Wish to use but until my old ASUS Laptop the screen got problem. When I try to tap on the keyboard and move the screen forward immediately force the computer to sleep mode. I suspected mine the hinge not tight. Like suddenly sleep halfway when using. Now my SSD store as storage as I try to use until it auto sleep by itself.

Because everywhere I read seems to have the instruction that tell me to change the boot sequence. Haha Ei I tot product key is related to windows part liao? Uefi or legacy, either one should auto detect my activated windows. This sounds like a good idea to do it. Haaha. I will try. I will try the cheapo method first. Can clone but fresh install no need to clone the bloat ware. Sounds a good idea. I research online and found the same method to disable sleep mode when close the lid... Will try out one day. Too many laptops on my table already. Now I have 2 printers + 1 laptop. Need to find a solution to put 2/3 Laptops and 2 printers together.
