I currently use a Samsung 840 Evo 250 GB SSD that has windows 10 pro and all my data. Since this is at capacity, I recently purchased a Samsung 860 Evo 1TB SSD and I am looking to transfer my OS and start using the larger SSD. What would be the easiest steps to do so? I have been told that deleting the old data on my smaller SSD, and then reinstalling my OS clean onto the new SSD would be the most straightforward compared to cloning.
I have backed up all my information from my 840 SSD onto my Seagate 2TB External HDD already. I also have a 32GB USB flash drive where I can use the Windows 10 media creation tool. Are there any particular steps for the media creation tool?
Specs:
OS: Windows 10 Pro
Motherboard: As Rock AB 350 Gaming K4
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 1600
GPU: AMD Radeon R9 280X
RAM: 16 GB DDR4 2400 Mhz
Thanks for your help!
