How to install Accortec 480 GB SATA SSD

• Power off your computer completely and unplug it from the power source. If you’re working on a laptop, remove the battery if possible and discharge any residual power.
• Open the computer case or access panel to reach the drive bay. Identify an available 2.5-inch drive bay or a suitable mounting location inside the chassis.
• Mount the 2.5-inch SSD in the drive bay using the appropriate screws. If your system uses a mounting adapter or spacer, attach it as needed to ensure the drive sits securely and aligns with the connector ports.
• Connect the data and power cables. Attach a SATA data cable from the motherboard or SATA controller to the SSD, and connect a SATA power connector from the power supply. Ensure the connections are snug and secure to prevent intermittent contact.
• Power on the system and enter the BIOS/UEFI. Confirm that the new drive is detected and set it to AHCI mode if required. Save changes and exit to continue the boot process.
• Initialize and format in the operating system. In Windows, use Disk Management to initialize the drive and create a new volume; in macOS, use Disk Utility. Allocate a suitable partition size, choose a file system (NTFS for Windows, APFS or HFS+ for macOS as appropriate), and complete the installation or data transfer.
• Optionally clone your existing system drive. If you plan to migrate your OS and applications, use cloning software to mirror your current drive to the new Accortec SSD, then boot from the SSD and verify performance and data integrity.
