So it seems my 5 year old SSD is on it's last legs with *at risk* errors and such, though really haven't experienced anything crazy out of the normal.
My Win7 is on this old one and I still have the old install CD with the serial number. Will it work normal just to install it on the new one or will I need to authenticate it by phone or online? A newer 2.5 SATA III SSD is nothing different from older ones? It wouldn't conflict with my old MB would it?
Also, aside from unplugging my HDD during the fresh install, what exactly do I need to do in the BIOS? It's been over 5 years since I done this....
I really have nothing important to back up. Only have essentials and anti-virus/malware and such installed. Though, I have steam installed on my HDD, would it face complications or will it install the necessary registry to the new SSD?
