I bought a solid state drive with plenty of space for $100. Now I need to transfer my operating system from the old SATA SSD. Don’t worry, I won’t be replying just yet—this is because I’m still sleeping.

Use a disk cloning tool like gparted to create an exact copy of your storage device.

Typically it takes a few minutes to copy data from one drive to another, depending on speed and connection.

It mainly depends on the amount of data being copied and the speed of the storage devices. With a SATA SSD, performance should be around 300 MB/s, which means roughly 3 to 4 seconds for each GB—depending on the drive's speed again.
