Hi, just to let people know, when I went to put in a new SSD card there was a soft piece of rubber stuck down on the area where the SSD card was to go. 4cm x 1.5cm x 0.5cm (1.5 inches x 0.5inches x Something I don't know what this converts too). approx. I just pulled this up to put the SSD card in.

Good job on the tutorial, excellent. However, 8:30 Before selling the SSD/NVMe SSD, make sure to format it first or delete the existing partition. You can do that after the clone finished and install it on the 2nd SSD slot, then do the disk management, or you can right click "My Computer/This PC", click on Manage, then under Storage, click on Disk Management. Uninstall the 2nd slot of SSD; You can sell it or just keep it as a backup (if you only do the clone) just in case if there's something wrong when or if you update the Windows, or get Malware or Virus, etc... Or if you want to sell the laptop in the future, you can put all the things together back again as original. If you sell it as original setup, make sure to remove the Windows key from your Microsoft account, so the new owner will not bug or complain why the Windows 10 (assuming it is), cannot be registered to their account since it was already tied under your name/Microsoft Account. However, if you use your own new Windows 10 key (e.g upgrade from Home to Pro then you change the key with Retail key, assuming the original is OEM), not the original, it might get complicated from here, unless you know what you are doing if you know what I mean.

Good video. However, this tool EaseUS Todo Backup and another tool advertised as "free" called AOMEI both were listed as free and both pulled BAIT & SWITCH and want you to pay to execute the clone. Good news my Sabrent SS2 M.2 drive comes with Cronis software for that is really free (included with purchase) and I was able to use this whole video but instead with the Cronis software to clone my SS2. I also used an External SSD M.2 enclosure (which was Thunderbolt 3) and cloned with that which was very fast. So in my Razer Blade pro I cloned the 512 SSD to a 1 TB SSD as my boot drive and then also added a Sabrent 4TB SSD nVME M.2 for a total of 5TB.
