Hi there,
I have a system which has a second hard drive with installed applications, games (including Microsoft XBOX game pass games which create their odd logical partitions as security). I want to move from one drive to a larger one, without having to re-install all software on it. I believe it might be as easy as cloning the drive to the new one, and after installing it in the place of the previous, ensure that the drive letter is the same in Windows. Is my thinking right, or will I run into problems?
For clarity, the previous drive is a 256GB SSD, while the new one is a 512GB NVME M.2 (my motherboard has two slots, one is already filled with a NVME specifically for the OS).
