Windows OEM Licensed - SSD Upgrade

Hi guys,

wanna ask, I just bought new laptop with Installed OEM Windows 10 SL inside,

Then I wanna replace my HDD into SSD *upgrade.

So can the OEM licensed used again in the new SSD ? or What should I do to transfer the OEM licensed from the HDD into new SSD, is it possible ? Thanks

 

Moving OEM license key for SSD replacement

1. OEM cannot be transferred means you cannot move it to a new computer, because the OEM license is tied to the hardware (eg: motherboard, CPU) of the first computer with Windows installed instead of hard drive. So, if you only want to

transfer OEM Windows 10 to new hard drive or SSD, it's practical.

2. The system image does not transfer your license key.

3. You don't need to reactive your Windows if you install the same version as the current one.

 

Windows 10 OEM Licensing

Hi

I have a few questions about windows 10 OEM licensing:

1. Is OEM licensing acceptable for business use?
2. What restrictions does OEM licensing have other than the transfer rights?
3. Can the OS be reloaded without breaching the license agreement, and if so, can I also replace the HDD with an SSD?
4. What other hardware upgrades can be done under OEM licensing?
5. What would be a breach of OEM licensing?
6. What benefits would a business get if they move to Microsoft 365 vs OEM?
