[ElTor]

I have a desktop pc with an M.2 128 GB ssd and a 1 tb harddrive. I have a bigger M.2 ssd but i only have 1 slot for M.2 so i want to move the boot drive to the hdd so i can replace the ssd snd then move it all back. Also i have stoff on the hdd that i dont want deleted.

Thanks in advance

Thats called cloning/mirroring/data migration

there are tons of software that can do that, samsung data migration works fast and reliably but works only with samsung drives (i mention it since i just used it the other day)
crucial has one too, but there are lots others, some of which sadly cost money.
don't really have a recommendation for a free one, sorry.
