Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers before you schedule service.
Will an SSD make my computer faster?
An SSD often improves startup and application responsiveness when an older hard drive is the bottleneck.
Can you clone my current drive?
Cloning may be appropriate when the source drive and Windows installation are healthy enough to copy reliably.
What is the difference between SATA and NVMe?
They use different interfaces and performance levels. Compatibility depends on the computer.
How much storage should I choose?
Capacity should account for current use, future growth, applications and backup strategy.
Does an SSD upgrade include a Windows reload?
That depends on whether the system is cloned or receives a clean installation. The chosen scope is explained before work begins.
