I have 30 SSD's that I plan on installing into computers throughout a school building. We use a Windows 10 image on our network to image every computer that is plugged into out network.
I am trying to image the SSDs' before taking them to the school to install so it saves time while in the school.

I am using an external SSD reader on my laptop to try and put the image on the ssd. Is this possible?

How do I go about this without affecting my current Windows 10 on my laptop?

Thanks for any suggestions.
