Thanks, Scott
The Z1 has only a single bay for disk drives and that bay will take either 1 x 3.5" or 2 x 2.5" drives. I cannot mount the SSD internally while the HDD is in place. Hence my efforts to clone to the SSD while mounted externally. Increasingly sounds like a fresh install may be the best option.
But a new winkle has emerged.
I thought I had downloaded drivers for the SSD 535 from the Intel website, but now I am not so sure.
If I go through the CONTROL PANEL to DEVICES AND PRINTERS I get a new icon for "USB TO ATA/ATAPI BRIDGE". Clicking on this and going to the HARDWARE tab I get a message "Device Status: This device is working properly". The hitting the PROPERTIES button, then the DRIVERS TAB I get the following:
- Driver Provider: Microsoft
- Driver Date: 21/06/2006
- Driver Version: 6.1.7601.17577
- Digital Signer: Microsoft Windows
When I try to Update Driver it seems to start the process and then states that I have the most recent drivers installed.
This is most confusing, drivers are ten years old ?? and they are not by Intel.
I still cannot get Windows to detect that the SSD is attached to the computer. Yet Control Panel says its there.
