<p>Okay, I watched the video a delight, I'll watch it a few more
times, didn't quite catch the file system suitability NTFS? I'll
listen for that again. My understanding of the video, at this
point,i'll call fuzzy logic one or two more viewings should answer
most, I have a little youtube anxiety. I have been watching
youtube for years ad free, last month they asked for a signup
which I have been trying to skirt. so if I am not prevented by you
tube I'll enjoy watching the video which is invaluable, Thanks for
having the interest, taking the time making this herein
informative, detailed recommendation.</p>
<p>Best, a</p>

Hi a and the rest of the mailing list,<br>
<br>
There are two ways _I_ would approach this...<br>
<br>
The first approach:<br>
<br>
If you are wanting to make a backup for all your files, then rysnc
is probably the way to go. I typically do this if I want to
pick-and-choose which files are put back onto the hard drive. I
*also* will do this from a live USB. I don't typically like doing
a root backup on a "live" system. I also don't prefer using
--exclude since I pick-and-choose what I want to move over. I
typically delete the extra stuff once I have set everything up on
the new hard drive, tested to make sure everything I use works,
then wait about 1 month before I clean off the remaining files. Of
course you can always just keep the old hard drive in an ESD bag,
and leave it in a safe place. If you need it, you can always mount
the drive externally. <br>

The second approach:<br>
<br>
Clonezilla can be used to take the source device and give it a 1:1
copy on the destination device. You can even copy over the
boot/swap partitions to the destination device. This is the
fastest way to transfer data from a old hard drive to a new hard
drive and have the ability to pick up right where you left off on
the old hard drive. I typically go down this route when clients of
mine are in a rush to get their computer back ASAP.<br>
<br>
Once you have Clonezilla on a USB drive, and have loaded the live
USB in the boot manager to your computer, you can follow this
tutorial.

<br>
If you do device-to-device and make sure you copy over all the
partitions, you should be able to boot off the SSD right after
you're done with Clonezilla.<br>
<br>
I hope I answered your question!<br>
