OK, but is the image bootable or just image to be restored and then be bootable?
FreeCat:
I guess what I am wondering is: Do I have to tell w7 that i am on an ssd? There must be some way to definitely tell if i am on ssd or hdd.

It will sense and automatically enable TRIM - https://www.digitalcitizen.life/simple-questions-what-trim-ssds-why-it-useful
To restore or put the image onto the SSD you would boot as normal with the WPE disk, plug in the ext. drive and then search for images where you'll see the images by date.

What's the Windows Experience Index (WEI) score for your drive now? Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Performance Information and Tools.
Run a benchmark on your SSD with =http://www.hdtune.com/HDTune Pro and attach the screenshot, please.
Trim being enabled by the OS doesn't necessarily mean that the Trim calls are reaching the drive(s), a 'bad' Controller driver can block the calls (even drivers from the hardware maker or Windows Update have been known to do this). If you can update the firmware on the drive(s) successfully, Hard Disk Sentinel or Trimcheck report that Trim is active or that it's working, then Trim is almost certainly enabled and active.

Howdy Satnow and Boggin,
WEI for drive is still 5.9 while all else is at 7.9. Somehow (even thought I F12) booted from Samsung SSD I am stil on the HHD. I discovered some tools in Reflect that might help, but I do not yet feel knowledgeable enough to use them. I will study them. There is a thing also call Samsung Magician --- another item to understand. Thanks for all your help.
