Thanks. Although it is a great option, it only works for Windows updates; still it's better than no option at all. Are there any suggestions (from anyone) to help in achieving my goal.

So, I am planning to either use "Shadow Defender" or preferably "Deep Freeze" to make the laptop go to its initial state after every reboot. But the issue here is about the updates, most critically for drivers, Windows, AV & Skype. I assume that all these four & other applications will...

Its Internet Download Manager & files downloaded are Oracle SOA Suite appliance of 12.5 GB (uncompressed) with 20 simultaneous connections to download files. Do you have any advice/suggestion as to what should i do?

When the hard disk utilizaton was 100%, i replaced it with SSD. Now the WiFi network utilization is 100%, what should i do? I have already updated the drivers for my "Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160" to the latest version "18.20.0.9" provided by "Intel" with date "08/23/2015".

Thanks Yami.

Well the replacement procedure went smooth. The SSD is working fine. (I used the Samsung recommended Data Migration software to clone disk before replacement) I have a question though: Should i disable the page file ? (pagefile.sys is of 200MB, RAM:8 GB - RAM usage goes near 100% when i use my...

Thanks. Do i need the intel RST service ? - i mean is there any benefit in getting it on my laptop with SSD ?

Should i install the Samsung Magician software ? Was too busy. Upgrading the SSD now.

Thanks.BTW, what version of PCI-E does my laptop has ?

Thanks for the quick reply. I needed confirmation. I have two questions: 1. Is there a PCI-E to M.2 adapter for laptops ? (i think there isn't & also they wont fit in) 2. Is NVMe BIOS boot support, something one could achieve via BIOS upgrades and/or BIOS configuration changes ? (see this &...

How can i add a M.2 NVMe SSD to my laptop (if possible) ? SSD to be added: Samsung 950 Pro M.2 NVMe SSD 512GB PCIe 3.0 x4 Laptop model: Dell Inspiron 15 5547 Mobo details (via Speccy): Also, which software to use to get better/more hardware details ?

Thanks to both PPMguire & carnageX. Hope this goes well.

Thanks, will get this since the other one is >$100. Also, could you suggest any tips or article to get the most out of the SSD, while also taking care of its health/life ?

1.Thanks for mentioning the auto-activation. The laptop does not have an ODD, so will clean-install via USB flash drive. If it doesn't, will try the clone & reset option. 2. Any suggestions for enclosure ? (cost of enclosure is nothing compared to the cost of data on the HDD contained within...

Thanks for the quick reply. Will try the clone & reset option (w/o selecting the Recover disk signature check box while cloning).
