The drive includes the software, but you will need an additional SATA cable. You will need to install the Acronis software and then install the new hard drive using that extra SATA cable. Use the software to copy the contents from your old drive to the new SSD drive. Remove the old drive and you'll be running on the new drive.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I used a "USB to 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD Cable". Hook cable to USB port, then to new hard drive, then use cloning software to make exact copy of old drive. Many free cloning software tools available online. Switch out drives, and may have to start up computer twice. Very easy, but takes a while to transfer all the data from drive to drive.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.All that you need is a usb to ssd III cable which you can buy from amazon for between $5 to $10 bucks.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You need a way to connect this drive in addition to the original one, also need software to clone original to the new drive, such as Macrium Reflect or other.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You need an external dock, either case or cradle, and software. You'll need to purchase the dock, but there are a lot of great cloning software for free.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I prefer an external hard drive doc. Or just copy all your stuff to a thumb drive.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You will need to 'clone,' the drive if it is going to be a direct replacement and not an additional drive. You can purchase a data transfer kit at Best Buy (Only for small form factor SATA drives.) Follow the directions. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/apricorn-data-transfer-cable-gray/3459621.p?id=1218404120715&skuId=3459621 However, the included software is not the best at making a true clone. Acronis True Image is the best cloning software I have used.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi You can buy cords that attach the SSD sata connectors to your computer's USB port. If you are converting a tower, it may have extra internal sata power and sata port--you would need a sata cable to connect.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You need a Apricorn - Data Transfer Cable. I bought mine at BB... super easy to use.
