You can likely connect your SSD directly to the new motherboard without needing to reinstall the OS. Just ensure the drive is properly seated and powered, but check your specific system requirements for any exceptions.

Your operating system key is linked to your motherboard's BIOS settings. You might need to reactivate the OS, but you likely won't have to completely reinstall it.

You've already applied the code, so contact Microsoft support to have it reactivated. The process might differ depending on whether the key was previously used or new.

You used that key on your latest model. It was a few months ago, and you plan to change soon. Appreciate the help!

After installing the new parts, proceed with the reactivation steps. Ensure your Microsoft account is connected to your Windows copy before installing the updates [You can find the guidance on the link I shared earlier].
