Moving Windows 10

Heims
Hi, Im thinking of buying me a m2 har drive. My w10 is already installed on a ssd. Is there an easy way of getting windows 10 over to a m2 drive because i want my pc to boot from the m2 drive.

Yes, ssd is 500gb and m2 1tb

well there is the possibility to use cloning software. But if u don't have important programs on your ssd, i would do a clean install of windows to the ssd drive and then pull  the data from the ssd to the m2(boot in to windows on m2 and just copy data between the disks)  and then wipe it clean so windows cant boot from it, and it can be used for normal use. 

I do not have create experience with cloning.  

 

And you do not have to buy a new windows 10 key:
