swapping old hard drive to new computer

By ben sim

today, i did a swap of windows 10 ssd from hp envy to hp pavilion. no stress, no hassle, it works just fine.

previously, i spent a night trying to transfer system from old hard disk to new system using various system transfer softwares, it just wouldn’t work, and that’s for windows 7 by the way.

i guessed that windows 10 has new capability to enable swapping old hdd to new system in a breeze.

no reference links from google on this finding but you can try it at your own risk, remember to backup your data before doing anything.

all feedback welcome if there are other related findings. thanks in advance.
