Installation Guide

Your purchase of the SSDNow with Accessory Kit will allow you to enjoy the benefits of

increased system performance and reliability. All hardware and software necessary to

replace your Desktop PC's internal hard drive with the SSDNow Solid State Drive (SSD)

is included. The Acronis®True Image HD software*, an imaging program that copies the

contents of one computer hard disk and loads those contents to another system drive, will

take you through the cloning process. This software allows you to move your Operating

System and your personal data from your current system hard drive to your new SSD.

Once the Acronis®True Image HD cloning process is complete and the data is

successfully transferred to your SSD, your hard drive can then be used as a secondary

drive for data storage.

*The software provided in this kit does not support imaging/cloning of RAID or Spanned disk arrays.

There are tools and features included in the Acronis software that are not applicable to this product bundle.

This manual provides instructions for the Cloning feature only. Please refer to the Acronis “Help” menu,

located within the software application, for instructions on the use of any other software features.

ATTENTION: PLEASE READ BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION.

●If the SSD provided in this kit is larger in capacity than the hard drive

currently in your system, proceed to Handling Precautions.

●If the SSD provided in this kit is smaller in capacity than the hard drive

currently in your system, please confirm that the used capacity on the system hard

drive is not larger than the capacity of your new SSD. Perform the following steps

to determine the Used Space on the system hard drive:

1) Boot your computer to your desktop.

2) Double click on My Computer (Computer in Vista) located on your desktop or

Figure 1: (C :) drive Properties

If the used capacity is greater than the capacity of the SSD, it is required that you move

some of your data such as pictures, movies, music, etc. off of the drive to an alternative

data source (e.g., external hard drive or USB drive) until the Used space is no more than

85% of your new SSD capacity. This will help to ensure that the imaging process is

successful. The following chart may be useful as a guide:

After the cloning process has been successfully completed, these files can be moved back

to their original location on the hard drive.

Handling Precautions

To prevent damage from static electricity, observe the following precautions:

●Allow the drive to remain in the anti-static container until you are ready to install the

SSD.

●Wear a wrist strap and connect the ground strap to the computer case to minimize

static electricity.

●Use care in handling the drive. Do not touch the connectors.

Hardware Installation

1. Turn off the power to your computer and disconnect the power source.

2. Remove the system chassis cover according to the system manufacturer’s

instructions.

3. Attach the 2.5” to 3.5” mounting brackets (provided) to the SSD by aligning the

mounting screw holes on the brackets with those on the SSD and inserting the M3

flat head screws provided.

4. Locate an available 3.5 inch drive bay inside your computer and install the SSD

using the 6/32” pan head screws (provided).

Note: Your system may require proprietary chassis screws, rails or a bracket

system to be used with its drive bay(s). If this is the case, please attach that

hardware to the 2.5” to 3.5” mounting bracket for compatibility with your

computer chassis. Refer to your system manufacturer’s documentation for

instructions.

Figure 2: Desktop PC motherboard with 4 SATA connectors.

The number of connectors on each system will vary.

Note: SATA connectors are keyed to ensure correct orientation.

6. Attach the other end of the SATA interface cable to the SSD.

7. Attach the power cable or power adapter (provided) to the SSD.

8. You are now ready to copy your data from the system hard drive to the SSD using

the cloning software CD provided.

Setup and Use Acronis®True Image HD

IMPORTANT: ** It is strongly recommended that you uninstall any Trial versions

of Acronis software prior to installing full versions.

1. Insert the Acronis True Image HD software CD into the system CD-ROM drive.

2. Restart the system.

3. The Acronis True Image HD CD is a bootable disk and will boot to the Acronis

True Image HD screen.

Note: If the system does not boot to the Acronis True Image HD screen and

instead boots to Windows, perform the following:

1) Restart the computer. While the system is restarting, run the system

setup program (BIOS). The BIOS can be activated by pressing a

special key such as ESC, F1, F12 or DELETE. (Refer to your system

manufacturer’s documentation for the correct key.)

2) While in the system BIOS, change the boot order so that CD-

ROM/DVD is the first boot device.

3) Save the settings and exit BIOS. (For more detailed instructions on

configuring the BIOS, consult your system manufacturer’s

documentation.)

4) Restart the computer. When the computer restarts, it should now boot

to the Acronis True Image HD page.
