Did you know cloning a hard drive then writing that image to a different hard drive takes a long time?

I didn't.

I have been doing this since, like 14:00. I have been here waiting for 6 hours now. It's gonna be another hour *at least*.

UGH.

My ADHD cannot handle this.

But it will all be worth it.

Hopefully.

I'm currently trying to move my Windows install onto my SSD, which should hopefully make hard faults less painful, because I'm pretty sure those are why my computer keeps freezing up. There seems to be a strong correlation between freezes, hard faults, and hard drive access, so it's probably choking trying to read from the 5400 RPM part of my SSHD. *Hopefully*, the SSD fixes that, and I can figure out if there are any other things bottlenecking Windows.

UPDATE: The CPU is problematic. I don't know why W7 hates my 4th gen Core i7, but it does, so, I'll have to sort that mess out
