SSD Handling Precautions

Observe the following before beginning the installation:

•Keep the SSD in the protective anti-static container until you are ready to install.

•Handle the SSD with care. Do not touch the gold connectors.

•To minimize static electricity, touch the computer case before handling the SSD.

•Do not remove the encasement or disassemble the SSD; these actions void the SSD warranty.

This step explains how to connect the Intel SSD to your computer in preparation for migrating

your data. Note that your current storage device remains installed until the final step of the

installation, “Swap Your Drives” on page 8.

Follow the steps for your platform:

—“Desktop Computers” (next section)

—“Notebook Computers” on page 4

Desktop Computers

1.If your desktop computer has a 3.5-inch drive bay, attach the Intel SSD to the mounting

adapter. (This helps the SSD fit securely in a drive bay.) If your desktop computer has a 2.5-

inch drive bay, you do not need to attach the mounting adapter. Go to step 2 in this section.

a. With the SSD right side up (Intel logo showing), place the Intel SSD on the mounting

adapter. Make sure the edge of the Intel SSD (with connectors) aligns with the edge of the

mounting adapter. See Figure 1.

b. Turn the SSD and mounting adapter over and insert one screw in each mounting hole on the

bottom of the mounting adapter. See Figure 1.

Notebook Computers

1.Connect the dual end of a USB-to-SATA cable to two available USB ports on the computer.

See Figure 3. You do not have to power off the computer.

Note: If your computer contains a USB 3.0 port (indicated with a blue connector), connect

the blue end of the USB-to-SATA cable to the USB 3.0 port. If your computer does not

contain a USB 3.0 port, you can connect the cable to any USB port.

Figure 3. Connect USB-to-SATA cable to notebook

2.Connect the single end of the USB-to-SATA cable to the Intel SSD. See Figure 4.

Figure 4. Connect USB-to-SATA cable to Intel SSD

3.Power on the computer, if necessary, and wait for the operating system to recognize the

Intel SSD.

A message appears when the operating system recognizes the Intel SSD.

Note: SATA devices may draw more power than some systems are capable of delivering

through USB ports. If the Intel SSD is not recognized, remove other USB devices

(external keyboards, printers, mice, scanners, etc). Keep these devices removed until

you have finished migrating your data from the old storage device to the Intel SSD. In

some cases, it may be necessary to purchase an externally powered USB-SATA device

or have your system data migrated by a professional.

The Intel SSD is now connected. Proceed to “Migrate Your Data” on page 5.
