Buying new SSD.

Go to solution Solved by LuX_,

If you check the Microsoft website they have a tool to do it if not just Google a guide and it will have a download link for transferring the operating system over. When I did it I didn't loose any data so you should be all right.

 

If you purchased windows 8.1/7 you should still be entitled to download 10 from their website 

I'm not sure if this goes here or OS/Software. I'm planing on purchasing a Samsung 850 pro 1TB but I'm worried about how the free upgrade for windows 10 will transfer over. If it doesn't transfer over should I purchase a new copy of windows 10 just in case?
