1. Unpacking Check your product box for the following items, also please refer to the back of the package to see the installation kit you have purchased. The illustrations may differ from your actual items.
2. SSD (Solid State Drive) Overview Solid State Drives, or SSDs, are innovative data storage devices that deliver high performance, reliability, and quality by using NAND Flash memory instead of the magnetic disks used in traditional Hard Disk Drives (HDDs).
Installation Precautions 1 Please ensure that the PC power is turned OFF and the power cable is unplugged before removing the PC cover to install the SSD. Serious damage may occur if an HDD is removed or an SSD is installed while the PC power is turned on. Even though many PCs and storage devices support SATA’s Hot Plugging (Hot Swapping) feature, Samsung strongly recommends that you turn the PC power OFF before starting the installation process.
4. Data Migration NOTE: If you prefer to do a clean OS install, you may skip this section. For Windows users, a full version of Norton Ghost 15.0 is included with every SSD 830 Series Desktop and Laptop Installation Kit. If you purchased an installation kit, please refer to the “Norton Ghost – Data Migration” User Manual included on the CD that came in your box and available online at www.samsung.com/ssd for detailed instructions on migrating all of your data, including your OS install, to your new SSD.
Desktop PC 1 Turn OFF the desktop PC power and disconnect the power cable. 2 Remove the desktop PC cover. 3 If you are adding the SSD as an additional storage device, mount it in a 2.5” HDD bay. Next, connect the SATA cable and power cable to the SSD. If your PC is only equipped with 3.5” HDD bays, attach the SSD to a 2.5” to 3.5” adapter bracket before mounting it in an empty HDD bay or slot.
6. BIOS Configuration NOTE: Mac users can skip this section. In most cases, the system will automatically detect the newly installed SSD when you restart the PC. If not, please follow the procedure below or refer to the user manual of your PC. 1 Turn the PC power ON. 2 Press the special key for your system to get into the PC BIOS settings (also called CMOS) during the initial boot process.
8. Magician Software Installation NOTE: The Samsung SSD Magician software does not support Macintosh, Linux, or any server operating systems. Samsung provides dedicated software for the Samsung SSD 470 and 830 Series in order to maintain the best operating environment for your new SSD. The Samsung SSD Magician software provides various maintenance features, including System Information analysis, SSD Performance Optimization (TRIM command), SSD Benchmark testing, Secure Erase, and Firmware updates.
