First of all use a program such as Macrium Reflect Free to clone or image the old drive. You have a number of ways of doing this. You could purchase an M.2 NVMe enclosure and image from the old drive to the new one. You can also use an HDD if you have one laying around, and using an HDD drive docking station, create an image of the old drive then restore it to the new drive. Macrium has a number of tutorials to help you here. Now another method can be used as the 7588 has a spot for a 2.5" drive. You can use a 2.5" HDD, image to that drive, then install the new drive and restore from the 2.5" drive.
I'm planning on upgrading my stock internal SSD from a 120gb to 1tb m.2 2280 NvMe ssd. I've looked some stuff up on line about how to transfer the data but I wanted to make sure I was going to do it right and without any hiccups and believe this is the best place. How do I transfer the data from the original internal SSD to the brand new Internal SSD? The G7 7588 only has one slow for an internal SSD. I have windows installed on the original SSD and would like to transfer that to the new one and would like to keep all of the data on the original SSD as well.
