    Ugrading my 1TB MBR HDD to a 4TB GPT SSD

    You should do steps as follows

    1) clone 1TB hdd to SSD

    2) run mbr2gpt utility to convert ssd to uefi

    Convert Windows 10 from Legacy BIOS to UEFI without Data Loss

    3) extend 1tb partition on SSD to 4TB using tool like Easeus Partition Master (free version is ok).

    Step 2 is the critical step.

    1tb ssd

    Is it recommended to reinstall Windows 10 when I upgrade from 1TB SSD to 2TB SSD on a desktop PC?

    Hi, it is suggested to do clean install if you have Windows Installation disc in hand. You have not specified much personal configurations till now. You can install applications or add drivers after installing Windows 10 on the 2TB SSD.

    It is also a good idea to keep the 1TB SSD as the secondary storage if you're running a desktop. Just in case you need to

    copy 2TB SSD to 1TB SSD
    for another purpose one day, disk cloning helps system migration without installing.

    Regards.
