I currently have an 120 GB Kingston V300 (ugh...) with my OS on it. The capacity is way too low and it is kind of slow plus the reputation of the v300 is scary. I was thinking of getting an intel SSD but i'm not sure how I would proberly move my OS on the new drive without having to pay for it (Windows 10) How do I do that? Thanks!

get something like a sata to usb adapter if your current ssd is in a laptop or plug it right in to the desktop and use on of the many cloning software that you can find online

here's a video on how to do it

and another one made by linus(prety old)

AMD Athlon X4 750k; Gigabyte F2A88XM-DS2; 8Gb Corsair XMS 1600 Mhz; AMD Hd5670 1Gb DDR3; Bequiet E6-600W; W7 Ultimate x64
