Hi, I'm plan to switch out my dead HDD for a Samsung 840SSD in my Acer one Aspire. I see some guides here, but even they are a little advanced for me.

I am wondering of someone might offer a layman's step by step please?

Also, should I assume that I should install the hardware first and then begin the windows install? ( I am not going to clone the old drive). Thanks so much.
