You are welcome. Glad it all worked out.Thanks LarryJoe33 for all of your suggestions...you've been a huge help!
Just to confirm, which drive are you referring to here, the new MX300 or the old MX100? I am guessing the 300 but the "but" part of your post has me wondering.but after doing Carbon Copy Cloner from the HDD, the SSD works! No issues whatsoever so far
I have the MX300 and am happy with it. Seems like Crucial's customer service is pretty good. Good to know.
