New here so not sure where it should go, sorry if its in the wrong place.
I have just purchased a new Lenovo Z500 which comes with Windows 8 pre-installed on a 1tb hard drive. I have a 128gb SSD and a optical bay caddy that I want to install into the machine which I will have no problems doing.
What I would like to do is move the factory hard drive into the caddy and use the SSD as my primary drive.
My concern in installing Windows 8 onto the SSD without a product key as it is pre-installed onto the machine. I haven't even opened the box for this yet, but will I have any problems with the activation process and how do I go about getting W8 onto the SSD without a retail CD?
Thanks in advace
