Actually they weren't :-)  the in-use one was a 128G and I used the Samsung
software to do a seamless migration to the 500 G drive.   I totally
remember the pain when I moved to my first SSD, and had to deal with
freaking Windowz issues with backing up and then restoring images between
different size drives, which meant I had to go out to third-party (Acronis
I think) to do the image backup and restores.

But, come 2014, and I was up and running in under an hour, pretty much all
thanks to Samsung :-) so super happy with the Samsung SSD drives.
