I have a samsung laptop that I purchased a few years ago from new egg. The Laptop came preinstalled with windows 7. It has a stock 5400 rpm HDD in it. I picked up a Kingston V300 SSD for 50$ today and was wondering if i were to swap drives in my laptop from the HDD to the SSD could I use the System recovery media CD that was included with my laptop to reload windows 7 back onto the new SSD I want to put in the laptop? Or will windows give me some message that I am not using a verified version of windows 7 like I need to buy another product key. Basically what I am asking is can I reload windows 7 back onto my laptop with a new SSD without having to purchase a new product key? I have the sticker that was provided with windows 7 that contains the product key on the bottom of my laptop. I look forward to any feedback thanks!
