I'm guessing the easiest way is to just move my m.2 in to my new PC with Windows on and then just format it once I've installed Windows 11 on the 2tb drive you've specced me?

Right so you never paid to activate it.

Best just do a fresh install of windows and drivers then it will be clean for the buyer.
