Hi, yes it’s something you could consider. Migrating Windows 7 to an SSD can improve performance, especially if you plan to use the laptop in a gaming setup. It might be more cost-effective than purchasing a new OS for around $150, depending on your location.

You might be able to, but afterward you'll need a copied version for the laptop or purchase one.

You don’t need another copy right now. The idea of linking the OS from a production laptop to your old one isn’t standard practice. Just because you have a newer machine doesn’t mean you’ll need to keep the older one.

The idea of moving an OS from a laptop to a desktop isn't ideal. While it's possible in some cases, success varies. You might need to contact Microsoft support for activation because the OS is typically tied to laptop hardware.
