I have a question about swapping OS, I have a 1 terabyte hard drive but lately I've noticed that my OS is very difficult to boot, It is just really slow. I have saved some money and would like to buy an M.2 SSD, but my question is: what is the best SSD for a budget of 125 euros (minimum 500 GB - maximum 1 TB)?  And how do I transfer my OS to this new SSD? I have already watched several YouTube videos on this subject but it looked very complicated. In these videos people mainly use other programs to backup their files but this looks very complicated;  what is the easiest way to do this? My specifications are in the attachment. I really hope someone can help!

You can clone the entire drive (OS, data and programs...basically everything) to the new one using a number of different programs, all of which accomplish the same task, duplicating the drive contents from one drive to another.

I have used this one, it's very easy: https://www.ubackup.com/free-backup-software.html

 

Limitation, MBR to MBR format only.
