now this is something that I've been meaning to take a look at for a long time this is the Intel data migration software it's powered by a Cronus so well apparently there's a full version that you can get why don't we find out what happens if you try and get the full version okay upgrade from Intel data migration software without 40% off discount so $29.99 so after that you can have continuous data protection you can create complete disk images performing parental and differential backups backup specific documents folders and categories and have access to the archives at back at any time and anywhere using online backup neat okay well let's get rid of that now and what I'm going to do is I'm just going to do the basic things so there's a few things that are included in the basic version so there's a data migration software media builder so you can create a bootable media with the Intel components you select so there's a data migration software okay it's drivers for USB PC scuzzy hard disks as well as the system report thing ok so we can do this we can run a Cronus dry cleanser so we can delete all the data off drives we can add new disks which one I'm going to do what we are going to do is we're going to click start now we are going to use the automatic parameters and we are going to take the data from the silicon power drive that I'm using as my boot drive right now which clearly isn't large enough for my test PC because I'm already totally full I haven't even installed any games other than Hawks 2 and I'm going to migrate them over to an Intel 120 gig SATA 3 SSD so I'm going to select a source disk which is this guy I'm going to select a target disk which is this guy yeah that's fine and let's see how this goes yes I'll be clicking proceed right about now ok so the software prompted me to reboot and here's what it came up with please focus your best camera ok so it's copying the partitions it's copying from that sad 4 space Drive to not this Intel I've the other IntelliJ IDE the one back there it's a 5-10 series 120 gig SSD and yeah so the operations taking a little while and then hopefully I'll have a new OS right Hey look there's me so the data migration software says I am done so what I'm gonna do now is I'm going to press any key to shut down the computer there we go then I'm going to unplug the SandForce SSD leaving only my intel SSD plugged into the system and i'm going to boot it back up let's see how let's see if we get into Windows ok here we go starting Windows excellent there's my test bench and there we go just like that that was easy the catalyst control center plow blah blah that makes sense because I have an Nvidia card misses some finished restart required so I got to restart in order to install drivers for the SSD that I'm currently using all right but let's see here what do we got ok so yeah the internal system disk everything is working a hundred percent with that simple little process so that my friends is how to use the Intel data migration tool to take your old boot drive whether it's an SSD hard drive a USB drive an SD card whatever the case may be and migrate the data over to a new SSD thank you for checking out this little episode of NCIS NCIX tech tips - tech tips don't forget to subscribe for more unboxings reviews and other computer videos
