Hello all.
I've been playing on PC for a little over 4 years now. My first purchase was a prebuilt PC. Over the years, I bought one extra hard drive, upgraded multiple things such as the case, motherboard, CPU and the GPU a few times. However I've never replaced my original HDD, just bought another to download Steam games to. I checked my device manager and it says my main HDD is a Hitachi HDS721050.
I've heard having Windows installed on a SSD is a bit faster than an HDD. Is this upgrade worth it? If so, is it possible for me to transfer my Windows activation over? When I bought the prebuilt PC, the seller did include the copy of Windows 7 with the activation key. Sadly, I believe that's long gone and in a landfill somewhere. I'm currently running Windows 10 just from free upgrades over time. I'm not interested in using a non-genuine copy of Windows. So, is it possible to do a fresh/clean install of Windows 10 on a new SSD without owning the original Win 7 activation code I started with? Or would I have to purchase another Windows key?
Thank you in advance for any and all help.
