I recently upgraded the SSD that came installed in my T440P. I would now like to install the Intel 240GB SSD that came from the Lenovo laptop in another PC. I downloaded the Intel Data Migration Software (IDMS), connected the SSD to the PC via a USB to SATA connector. When I tried to migrate, IDMS recognized the SSD and appeared to be working. But, when I told it to clone the HDD it buzzed and whirred for about a minute then gave me the message "Operation Failed" with no other clues. I then downloaded the IIntell tool box and "wiped" the SSD and tried all over again. Same result.
What do I need to do to be able to use this Intel SSD in another PC? There appear to be 3 partitions on the SSD: System Drive, Lenovo Recovery, and Windodws 7_OS. if these need to be removed, do I need to reformat the SSD? If that's the case, what software is required to reformat the SSD? The only markings on the drive are the Intel logo, a sticker that says 240GB, and Lenovo related FRU and part numbers. I'd sure appreciate some help with this. Thanks.
