I bought a Dell XPS about 12 years ago and it had a TB HDD       drive. Since that time, I've added 2 more 1TB HDD's to the box. So,       that's three perfectly fine HDD's that still work great that I don't want       to just trash.              But, I do want to convert them to SDD's so that I can gain a little bit of       speed using common programs. In other words, I would prefer not to have to       purchase any new product, only convert what I currently have.              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
