1.unplug ur current hdd, in case u accidentally format/delete ur hdd
2.plug in ur new ssd
3.install os on ssd
4.plug in ur hdd after os is installed

tata. no data will be missing

Hibernation need space on ur SSD.

Sleep erm... for HDD users who wants to have a "fast boot up". Sleep uses less power to keep the system at a very inactive mode hence when you wake up the system, it is faster.

SSD just Shut down!
