GS60 6QE nvme upgrade to 950 PRO Cloning or Image backup??
My brand new laptop is GS60 6QE came with Toshiba M.2 nvme 128GB with windows 10 and 1 TB HDD. I've purchased the Samsung 950 pro m.2 512 GB and Samsung 850 Evo 1TB SSD.
For the Upgrade setup I've read many different articles and seen many clips on you tube! But the some info were and conflicting!
I've updated my Bios with the latest update so there shouldn't be any problems to detect the 950.
My concern is how do I clone the windows and files as I have 1 M.2 slot! I have purchased the Acronis TrueImage 2016.
I thought of 2 options I require guidance which to go for and if hopefully there is a 3rd option which works best.
Option 1:
Clone my windows and files to the HDD. Replace Toshiba with Samsung 950. Clone from HDD to 950. Replace HDD with 850 EVO.
Concerns: Cloning twice and from M.2 to HDD and back to M.2, Would I have a problem due to (sector by sector differences), or Should I do Image Backup and And Copy the Image into 950.
Option 2:
Buy new windows 10 and Install both new M.2 and SSD and make a new fresh everything! lol

Acronis bootable rescue media or WINPE Based media with acronis plug-in.

First make sure you have the latest build of the True Image product installed. That would be version 6569. Click on the Account icon in the GUI to view what Build you are using if unsure.
The Acronis bootable rescue media should work just fine for you.
