Q: QuestionDo you need a power cable and sata cable?
Asked by Ted.
- A:Answer If your computer doesn't have them already, then yes, because this drive does not come with any cables. My computer had the power cord but I had to buy the SATA cable.

Q: QuestionWill this work with a desktop PC? and are there any restrictions or limits on the power supply?
Asked by BoristheHun.
- A:Answer This drive will work in any PC, desktop or notebook that has a standard SATA hard drive connection. It's a 2.5" drive, so to mount it in most desk top computers a 2.5" to 3.5" adapter would be useful however it can be mounted anywhere it will fit, even with double stick tape. Some folks that I've heard of just let it lay in the bottom of the computer or just let it hang from the wires. There are no power supply restrictions.

Q: QuestionI have pavillion dv6 2151cl and has the regular HD if i change it to an SSD how will i transfer all the things that i have in my old HD including the operating system that i have, do i need to buy a cable to do the transfering(what kind of cable).
Asked by TRAQ.
- A:Answer Samsung SSDs are entitled to two important pieces of software, one is the data transfer wizard, the other is the Samsung magician software, which optimizes your device and improves performance significantly. The transfer wizard will pull all of your data, including your operating system and allow you to plug in your SSD via USB (I recommend this cable, also sold at Best Buy https://www.bestbuy.com/site/apricorn-data-transfer-cable-gray/3459621.p?skuId=3459621) run the simple transfer wizard, and then install your new SSD, with everything ready to go. No convoluted commands to rewrite the boot sector / bootloader, no need to worry about resizing partitions, it handles everything. I would highly advise making sure to use a USB 3. 0 port to speed up the process, but the cable I linked to above is perfect for this job, and needs no external power... Just that of the USB port itself. here's a link to the download page, make sure you get the transfer Wizard and magician software. https://www.samsung.com/semiconductor/minisite/ssd/download/tools/ Also check out rapid mode inside of the magician software, once everything has been transferred. It can improve your speeds from a base of 550 mbps per second all the way up to 3800 Mbps. Total project time should take less than 3 hours.

Q: QuestionWill this work with the Dell Inspiron 15.6" Touch screen AMD Ryzan 5 8GB 1TB Hard Drive Model I 5575-A214SLV-PUS that you have listed for $469.
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Yes, this is a direct replacement for the hard drive in that model of laptop. You will need to image the original drive to the SSD if you wish to preserve the original operating system and recovery partition. You will need to download the Samsung Migration Tool and purchase a USB/SATA interface cable, as well. Good luck!

Q: QuestionI purchased Windows 10 at Best Buy and installed it on my current hard drive. Do I have to repurchase Windows, or will the Samsung cloning software also transfer the OS? If not, can I reinstall my current copy of Windows on the SSD drive?
Asked by John.
- A:Answer The Samsung Data Migration utility will transfer over your Operating system partition and boot up like nothing is different. The factory recovery partition will not transfer over however, but that will not stop the drive from booting up to your operating system.
