Once your SSD is ready to rock, make sure TRIM is enabled. This little feature helps your SSD maintain performance over time. You can check by running fsutil behavior query DisableDeleteNotify in the Command Prompt. If it's set to 0, you're all good!

After cloning a hard drive to SSD on Windows 11, you might need to tweak a few settings in BIOS or Windows to ensure your system boots from the new SSD.
