Gaming laptop SSD upgrade for storing a game library

[alex2zulu]

Pretty much as the title says I've got a acer preditor helios 300, model PH315-54-73YB and i want a fast but large drive to store all my games on. I've got a 512GB SSD m.2 and a 1TB standard HDD at the moment.
any advice would be appreciated, thanks

Assuming your windows install is on your 512 m.2 then it should be dead easy to clone the 1TB hdd to a 1TB or larger SSD by taking the hdd out, putting it in a usb caddy and cloning it to the larger SSD using Macrium. I did this myself recently on my laptop and it was as simple as could be.

I'd put the new SSD in the USB caddy and clone the HDD to it while the HDD is still safely in the laptop but otherwise as @Bubo says.
