@LCP47,

Looking at the specifications of the HP 580-027c The following is noted.

1) The 1TB HD (3.5") original is SATA, attached to SATA0 header.

2) Your 2.5" SSD size (in GB) is unknown) but If properly cloned, it must be attached to the cables that were the original cables for the 3.5" drive.  That is the port called up first. The original 3.5" drive MUST not be connected to any port.

3) Once you have verified that the SSD can boot and there are no issues, continue.

4)  You have to use an external USB adapter to read the old drive.  After boot-up , you can connect the device if you want it only as a DATA drive. If so, you can then format it from the USB device.  From that point, you could re-install the drive in the unit using an unused  SATA header.

@LCP47,

A re-install of WIN 10 is free from MS.
