Im running low on space on my FireCuda 530 1TB, i got OS and games installed on it and feel like im torturing it since its my only m.2 SSD drive so it's time to hook up another m.2 SSD drive, as soon as i install another m.2 SSD drive should i reinstall windows? And how can i move my games to my new m.2 without losing any progress or messing something up?

The new m.2 SSD will be for games, and the old one will leave it for OS and media stuff.

Adding a new drive does NOT mean you have to reinstall the OS.

Just add it. It will be seen as another drive letter.
