I am planning on buying this SSD from Crucial's website. I will install it in my HP ENVY 2014
"Crucial BX200 240GB SATA 2.5" 7mm (with 9.5mm adapter) Internal SSD"
http://www.crucial.com/ProductDisplay?displayCompatibleLogo=1&urlRequestType=Base&catalogId=10151&productId=837001&externalPartNumber=CT7544868&urlLangId=-1&scanId=21FEE44431D926C3&langId=-1&storeId=10151

I want to know what is included with SSDs usually do I need to buy some wires or something to connect the new SSD to the laptop during the Cloning process. I'm kinda confused.

most new laptop have a restore partion on the hard drive check with the vendor to see if you can make a recoverable usb stick. if you can then back up your personla files to the cloud or onto a large usb stick. install the ssd and run the recovery. then move your file back onto the ssd. also for a small fee get a set of restore cd from hp.
