You can move Windows 8 from your current laptop to another SSD or hard drive. This way you won’t need to purchase a new version later.

You’re looking for a drive copy utility. There are many options available, though compatibility can vary across systems—some may require re-registration. If you have a CD key, using the phone option and specifying one computer should help with authentication. Just remember, last time I checked it worked fine.

Use the Magic Jelly Bean to extract the key, but once removed, you’ll need to download the Windows 8 ISO and install it on your desktop using the laptop’s original key. This approach should work.

I discovered a section on the Microsoft site offering a free download of the operating system. It provides instructions for transferring the file to a USB drive or saving it as an ISO. You might also need a CD key, which can be bought online.
