The SSD is compatible. If the ssd is the only storage drive this makes the process easy. First check if the motherboard reads that the ssd is connected. Next make sure you have a flash drive or disk of windows 10. Rearranging the boot order so the USB port or Diskboots first. After that save setting and exit the bios. (Make sure the disk or usb is in) you should boot into a windows screen and walk through the steps. The activation code should be on a sticker on your case.
GOOD LUCK

Yes. You can use Windows 7 codes for windows 10. You can download windows to a usb on Microsoft’s website.
