I Just got a new ssd and was wondering if there is anyway i can only transfer the windows operating system from my old hard drive to my new ssd. That way i can boot with ssd and use my hard drive for my documents / Data. Please if there is way could you give me a brief tutorial :)

SSD= OS
HDD= DATA

You can't clone just the OS. Cloning a drive will clone everything. Take the old drive out and install the SSD into the same port the drive was in and then load windows on the SSD. Then load all the MB drivers, then install the old drive into another port and you should have access to it and be able to use it for storage or what ever. All of your files will still be accessible on the old drive.
