Im trying to uprgade my current ssd to a better cap ssd. Im using aomei partition assistant. What O dont know is if when I do a os/ drive (what ever its labeled as) migration/transfer, will it move everything from my old ssd to new ssd and make the new ssd the bootable drive? If not is it possible to use drive migration kits made by other companies other than the one I bought my ssd from and have it still do the job correctly?

Thanks for any help!!!!

It will move everything so you can boot from it just fine.

Everything as in programs, pics, docs, vids, etc.? Also... just so I know, when I move os to new ssd. Will the old ssd be empty after transfer?

It should just copy everything over. Unless it specifies that it's moving just the OS (which I doubt), it's mostly likely just going to copy over everything.
