How make my new ssd the C drive and transfer old datas to it

kaans42

I had a sata 240gb ss on my PC for a long time and it is not quite enough for me for now. So i bought a 500gb nvme ssd. I want to make the new ssd my c drive, like i want to transfer every single file to the newer ssd including Windows and clean the older one. I found some apps that transfers windows files to an another disk but couldnt understand completely and it was only for windows. If anyone could help or knew any guide about it i would be really happy.

You'd basically just want to clone your main drive to it. I usually use macrium reflect for that , the free version will do it. But yes theres other cloning softwares that others can recommend

It just clones what you have now onto the new drive. So however your pc was prior to the new disk will be how it is with the new disk.

Yes it will clone windows to if done properly.

Don't delete your old drive right after you clone it.

Keep it for a week or two to make sure the cloning is succesful.
