I really nedd some help here. I currently have 1 120GB SSD drive for OS, and 1TB HDD as storage. I want to replace and clone the !TB storage drive for SSD. I've only seen how to clone OS drive.
How do I do it? ( Do I plug HDD and new SSD in pc at the same time and then clone, and then replace HDD for new SDD or what do i do) ?

Then any of the various cloning applications should work. The same way you'd do an OS drive.
