(Help) Reinstalling windows 10 onto a new SSD without a disk

[xfalcon_]

I am planning on upgrading the storage on my current PC due to the lousy read and write times of my HDD. I am going to keep my current HDD in my PC as a back-up drive as it is still functioning properly and has a large storage size, it is just a bit slow.

 

As a replacement for the job that my current HDD does I am planning on buying a Kingston 120GB SSD to store my OS (windows 10) as well as a Western Digital 2.5" 750GB drive (I know the capacity is small but I don't have that much rubbish laying around on my PC)

 

The first issue I would like help with is the back-up drive. Should I have a complete copy of both my SSD and HDD on it, or just store files that are important to me and exclude my OS? If I choose to have a complete back-up including my OS on my back-up drive, will my PC run normally despite having two copies of windows on it?

 

The other issue I would like help with is to do with transferring my OS from my current drive to an SSD. I would like to do a completely fresh re-install of windows. The problem is, is that many websites simply tell you to use the windows disk that came with your PC, but I don't have one. I do have a recovery disk which I could use, but it contains windows 8 (8, not 8.1) and a load of bloatware which came with my PC. If I use the recovery disk to get windows onto an SSD, will it automatically give me the ability to download windows 10 because I have done so already? Or is there a completely different alternative to this which may allow me to do a fresh install onto a new drive?

 

Any help or experience is valued and appreciated, thank you

The windows media creation tool from Microsoft downloads Windows 10 and updates it. Then you can put it on a usb drive. Use it to install Windows 10 on the ssd.

No problem.

Download .iso file of windows 10 > burn it to your CD/FD ( i used rufus for this) > open bios with the bootable disk plugged in and boot from the disk

Sorry to be a pain, but how do I get to BIOS and then boot from the disk? Do I simply turn on my PC with no OS installed on any storage device?
(I've never done this before) Thank you for the help though.

Press del or F2 to enter bios

 

Yes you can leave the hard drive empty for the moment

The bios menu will differ depending on the mobo
