Hi, I have an ASUS G53JW-SX119D laptop, and I recently had an Intel 520 SSD installed in the second bay. I'm still running Win7 on my old HDD and I want to clone it to my new SSD - so far so good.
The issue I have is that after the cloning is done, all guides say that you have to remove the old HDD before running the cloned Win 7 for the first time, and removing the HDD is quite complicated on the ASUS G53 (you have to remove the keyboard, touchpad and so on).
My question is if it's possible to clone Win 7 to my new SSD and then run it without disconnecting the old HDD ? (and of course format the C partition on the old HDD)
Thanks,
Sorin
