HDD to SSD Migration, help!

[Andrew Tazy]

Hey!

Okay, straight to business, my pc runs of 2 hdd's they are both 1tb seagate barracuda (one black, one green).

The way I have my hard drives set up is,

my primary (C drive) is used for OS and day to day apps, such as, firefox, visual studio, etc.

my secondary (D drive) is used for games, games and uhhh, games...

 

I have recently found this ssd;

https://www.ebuyer.com/755733-pny-cs900-240gb-solid-state-drive-ssd7cs900-240-pb

and need help on how to migrate my operating system (windows 10) to the SSD without losing all my application on my primary hard drive.

 

Is there a way to do this/tutorial?

 

Any help is extremely appreciated!

If the new SSD is the same size as the hard drive your os is on, you're golden. Otherwise you'd be looking at having to back things up and starting with a new OS installation 

 

The stuff on your D drive is safe though

Amount of data should be smaller than ssd capacity - then you can use Macrium Reflect to clone your os. And this is very common question here on forum - you can use search function.
