    reinstalling w10 onto ssd?

    laptop comes with 2 drives

    it looks like this:

    imgur.com

    disk 1= hdd

    disk 0 = sdd

    question #1: what's on the ssd? is there anything needed for w10 on the ssd right now?

    is there anything needed for w10 on the ssd right now? are we able to reinstall with clean install on ssd, and the w10 on the hdd would still work?

    w10 installed digitally i guess? is activated

    did the windows updates

    problem: the 'cloning' softwares does not let me 'clone' the hdd to the sdd

    question #2: why? what is the problem?

    dunno which is faster, to do clean install on ssd and do updates again, or just clone

    question #3: has anyone done this kind of thing recently? which is faster?

    question #4: are there any good articles or youtubes that tells us what we're suppose to do?

    the general sites just says one option is to use the cloning software, but they dont tell explain to us what we're suppose to do

    another option seems to be 'system image' but that seems extremely complicated with so many steps

    SWOP OLD ACER W10 LT 1TB SSD TO NEW ACER SPIN 3 W10 LT 250GB SSD WITHOU CLONING ?

    Installing W10 on a new SSD

    Probably been asked a trillion times but I cannot find a straight forward answer.

    I am soon to be changing my HDD for an SSD in my 6 month old Lenovo laptop, it came with W10 HOME pre installed with a partition for the drivers on the HDD.

    If I put a new SSD in the laptop and then install W10 HOME will it automatically activate or will I have to buy a new licence as there is no key to activate on the underside of the laptop.
