I have an old Dell 435 mt studio XPS suffering performance. Every thread I've read says that going into the system BIOS and turning on RAID will not stay put resorting to IDE instead. I don't know if this is an issue because of Samsung's migration software. Would a generic cloning software like Acronis be a work around or am I Out of luck? By the way my Motherboard ports are SATA II. So, there is a backwards compatability issue as well.
