Exchanging an existing partion over to a new SSD? (Steam & games on it)

[NeilF]

So I have...

A 240gb SSD:-
- My C drive

A 2.5TD SATA Drive:-
- My D partition (1TB) - With a number of games and Steam (& its games) installed on it
- My E partition
- My F partition
- My G partition

If I install a new 1TB SSD (say to drive letter Z), and simply copy all of D to it (Z), I could then (in Windows Disk Manager) simple change my existing (old) D partion to letter H, and then change the new SSD's Z letter to D?

And voila, everything running as before but not on the SSD? I can then just clear down the old partion (H) as/when I feel like it?

Should work fine. Windows is looking for the D drive which you're still giving it. Steam will work fine regardless of drive letter which is handy.

Steam is installed and running on D so once again I assume the move above would be seem less for it?
