I'm planning to install an SSD on my setup. That should be straightforward, I reviewed the tutorial. However, when I need to reinstall Windows and enter the activation code, will it still function? I thought I was limited to using it once, so re-entering it after activation on my mechanical hard drive won't work since that drive stays in my rig. EDIT: I'm also facing another issue. My old laptop still has W7 installed, but I no longer have its activation key. Using a friend's USB drive with a downloaded ISO, I reinstalled 32-bit Windows, but it requests the activation code which I don't possess. The one I received from "Keyfinder Program" before trying the reinstall was generic: 6rbbt-f8vpq-qcpvq-khrb8-rmv82. I wasn't aware of that. Now I'm stuck with a laptop that runs perfectly without a genuine Microsoft product installed.

It should identify your MAC address as the device you previously connected, preventing it from being counted for multiple installations based on disk activity across up to three machines.
