Hello,
Long story short, a while ago I cloned the hd of a Fuel I got given (6.5.16,
original installation from an iconic car designer, Bertone), and all was ok.
The original hd was then left in place but unpowered, the cloned was upgraded
to 6.5.22 to maintain the classic applications. Fast for
Watching all the pictures was a really good experience, especially
considering how many of those items I would never have had the chance of
seeing otherwise.

Consumer level SSD are, by specifics, guaranteed to retain data for 6 months
