I've always been able to operate in 512GB of disc space on my development machine but I have a few file servers in my office to store and access large files from. A fast, external drive also handles data when I need to have it on the road with me. My current laptop (Dell XPS15) only has a 256GB drive in it at the moment because Dell wouldn't sell me the unit with anything larger in it. I have a 512GB replacement to put in it but other things have taken my focus of late. Maybe between Christmas and New Years I'll get a chance to swap the drives. There are NVMe drives so I may have to reinstall a new OS image on it but that is the cost of upgrading.

My laptop is so old that it won't boot off of an ISO on a USB key. At least it won't on the USB 2.0 port and my USB 3.0 ports are dead unfortunately. I installed the OS off of a CD.

How'd you get the operating system installed on the new SSD? USB drive of ISO image?
