I bought an alienware m17 r3 back in October to replace an Asus G74VW machine. The Setup is as Follows:
128 GB M.2 Sata SSD (STOCK/BOOT SSD)
250 GB M.2 Samsung EVO 850 SATA SSD
17" UHD Display
I know the Computer came stock with the 128 GB SSD but I thought if I put in the 250 GB it would have cloned over to it but I was wrong. I used the Cloning software that I got from Samsung to clone the drives but no joy. So I left them in place and had my Adobe CC on the 250 GD drive only. Now after only a month I am worried that the Drive size is worrisome. Its over 54% but all of the programs are on the 1 TB HDD. But my C drive is still getting full and I keep it clean with CC Cleaner and Windows Cleaner.
Also I was thinking about putting the New Samsung M950 Drive in the machine say the 512 GB size one in PCIe? Will the m17 r3 with that drive? Also how can I clone the drive to replace the 128 GB because I tried the Samsung cloner it did nothing and when I restored the machine using the Alienware Rescue USB drive they gave me it would not give me the option to install on the 250 GB drive only the 128 GB drive. I am worried that I cant upgrade the dive and run out of room. Thanks
