Installing OS (windows 7) on SSD
Hi,
I am thinking of installing windows 7 on my new Inspiron 5423. Is it possible to install it on SSD directly?
If not please let me know the procedure to shift OS files to the SSD.

It is used as a cache for the main drive - it holds frequently used data to reduce wait times for read from the hard drive.
You CAN install Windows to the SSD - you just won't be able to run much in 32G. Even a 128G drive can fill up quite rapidly.

Not if you have the 32G drive - it's far too small. 128G is a bare minimum for installing Windows onto.
