Best way to upgrade OS HD

Recommended Posts

Hi

 

So, here I am listening and watching my WD raptor disk failing slowly, day after day.

I figured its time to jump on the SSD train and buy myself an SSD disk.

Now, what is the best way to clone my HD so I dont have to install windows, drivers and apps again?

Sounds good. So that one copies everything? MBR and all that?

Anyone knows whats best of these two options :

1. 2* 40Gb X25-V in Raid 0

2. 1* 80Gb X25-M

 

They cost about the same, but with option 1 do you get the same or better speed as the faster X25-M drive?

 

*EDIT* after reading this : http://anandtech.com/show/3618/intel-x25v-in-raid0-faster-than-x25m-g2-for-250

I decided to go for a Raid 0 X25-V.
