I recently bought a 840 Samsung Evo 120GB and I want to migrate the OS from my 1TB HDD drive to the 120GB SSD. I recently built this computer and the HDD is barely 1/10 full (100GB).
I have read several articles on how to transfer the OS to the SSD without reinstalling, but it is a bit confusing from my point of view. Article: http://lifehacker.com/5837543/how-to-migrate-to-a-solid...

I'm willing to transfer everything from my HDD to the SSD, but after I finish I will restore my HDD using my external hard drive backup, and delete every file on the SSD besides the OS and a few games. Is it possible to do that, and can I have some clarification on how to do it? Like a step by step order that's not a parapgraph long each step.
