I'm in a bit of a unique situation here; My PC is getting old, so I've bought new all new parts, but last year I put a new hard drive(2TB) and SSD(240GB) into my system. Right now, Windows is installed on the hard drive, which I'm using as the boot drive.
I'm moving from an intel processor to a Ryzen 5 2600x and installing it with a new motherboard, so I'll have to reinstall and reactivate my copy of Windows 10. However, I want to install Windows onto my SSD this time around. There's not much installed onto my SSD currently, so I'm probably going to move things I want to keep to the hard drive and wipe it for a fresh install of windows. So I need to remove windows from the Hard drive without losing any data, while making my SSD the boot drive.
My only issue is I'm not really sure how I should go about doing this, and am looking for advice to make this process as smooth as possible. Any tips are appreciated, thanks!
