I purchased a new Lenovo laptop with a 320 GB HDD, as well as a 128 GB SSD separately. I want to put in the 128 GB SSD and migrate the Windows installation over. Unfortunately my external adapter doesn't work with the SSD, maybe I need a USB 3.0 capable one for it to be picked up. I tried putting the SSD inside the PC, the HDD attached via the adapter, and running Parted Magic, but apparently that only works when both disks are internal. I tried using the built-in Windows 8 system image/system repair disc method, but that wouldn't work either.

Any help getting me transferred over would be appreciated. Thanks.
