Hi:

 

It appears your PC is supported by the cloud recovery tool.

 

Here is an info link for how to use it to reinstall W10 using the tool.

Now there is a good possibility the tool won't work because you replaced the 1 TB hard drive with one that is half the size.

 

If it won't work, then you can always reinstall W10 using the media creation tool to create a bootable USB installation flash drive.

After W10 installs, you can install the drivers and available software from your PC's support page.

So, you are covered either way.
