Sure, you can upgrade your Windows 10 to work on an M.2 drive. Since your W10 is already on an SSD, you’ll need to format the M.2 slot and install the OS there. There are straightforward methods like using a USB installation tool or a live USB to boot from.

Keep your SSD but have the PC start from the M.2 drive instead.

Yes, M2 is generally larger than an SSD in terms of physical size.

well there is the possibility to use cloning software. But if u don't have important programs on your ssd, i would do a clean install of windows to the ssd drive and then pull the data from the ssd to the m2(boot in to windows on m2 and just copy data between the disks) and then wipe it clean so windows cant boot from it, and it can be used for normal use. I do not have create experience with cloning. And you do not have to buy a new windows 10 key: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help...are-change https://www.windowscentral.com/how-link-...ft-account
