A:Answer They don't include any hardware, however there is a downloadable software included with the purchase. It is Acronis True Image for Crucial, and is only available for Windows machines. This application allows you to create backups of the drive(s), transfer all of the data to a new drive, and even sanitize a drive I believe. I'm not allowed to link things here but if you Google Acronis for Crucial it will come up on the crucial .com/support website for one of the top links - it should be free and just detect the drive and activate itself.
