HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop PC TG01-0000i (8BG56AV)

Hello,

 

My HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop Model TG01-1183w initially came with a 256GB M.2 SSD. I have an additional SSD installed for games. I bought a 1TB Samsung SSD 980 NVME M.2 SSD. What is the easiest way for me to be able to install this SSD in the place of my 256 GB SSD and not lose all of my OS, docs,  pics, etc. or ruining my second SSD?

 

Thanks!

Sorry, to clarify: I currently have 256gb M.2 SSD. I bought a 1TB M.2 SSD that I want to upgrade to. I don’t want to lose my Windows OS. I ideally don’t want to use any cloning programs either.
