Today I am migrating a Windows 7 installation from a slow hard drive to a faster SSD and then adding a Linux Mint (Debian Edition) dual boot.

Used Samsung Migration Tool to go from the slow hard drive to Samsung SSD, then will use CloneZilla to copy that to a larger SSD, then will install the Linux dual-boot.

This is on a Dell Studio XPS 435mt - an interesting machine with LGA1366 socket. This one has a first gen Intel i7 and 12GB memory.

The computer originally come to me "because the power button doesn't work", as reported by the owner of the computer. It was actually a failed power supply. She wants to continue using this computer, so the much faster SSD over the slow HDD will be a huge performance upgrade.
