If the capactive of newDrive > oldDrive's, then yes, you can. Use a cloning software like CloneZilla.

 

Still, a fresh install on the new drive will always work better.

 

I'm extremely lazy, so I'll just give you a video for CloneZilla.

Well, I typo'd, so that makes sense. If the capacity is bigger on the new drive than it is the older one, hten it'll work. tl;dr:

if new drive bigger than old drive, it'll work

 

eg:

250GB (old drive) > 1TB (new drive) would work, while

1TB (old drive) > 250GB (new drive) would not

1TB (old drive) > 250GB (old drive) would not

This is exactly my situation , what should I do?

Reinstall Windows. Like I said, a clean install will always perform better.
