You can start by choosing a reliable SSD that fits your needs. Look for models compatible with both your operating system and After Effects. For a budget-friendly option, consider SSDs from brands like Samsung, Crucial, or Western Digital. Make sure the speed is decent enough for smooth performance without breaking the bank.

It seems most cloning tools bundled with SSDs are essentially rebranded versions of Acronis True Home. You can simply purchase any SSD you prefer and use Acronis. Just ensure TRIM is activated following the clone process.

It’s like a cleanup process for SSDs. When you delete files, TRIM helps the system know which data is no longer needed and moves it to storage. To check if it’s working, run a command in CMD and see if the result says 0. If it does, TRIM is active.

Also connecting to trim topics—if you're using anything from Windows 8, be careful not to defrag it.

I strongly suggest restoring the OS from scratch. Cloning your drive might lead to TRIM problems, Windows could continue defragmenting (since it was configured for a traditional HDD, not an SSD), and the unknowns are numerous. You can check this tutorial here:
