2 options, migration or clean install

Migration - Easus Todo, Macrioum Reflect, Casper, Acronis Trueimage, Samsung Data Migration.
Takes the entirety of the current drive and moves it over to the new drive
This usually works. Usually.

or

Clean install. And reinstall everything else.
This always works.

Yes, it is that simple, when it works.
After it is done, dosconnect all other drives and verify it boots from only the SSD.

Then, wipe that original SSD and proceed.

Think you have a typo in the last line. Should say: "Then, wipe the original Hard Drive and proceed."
We don't want him wiping his SSD that he just spent all the time of transferring all his files and windows to now do we..
