When you get into Windows, the old drive will show up as the next available drive letter (probably D: or E: )

So the real question becomes, can THE GAME store its game files in a different location than where the program itself is installed? If so, just point that path to somewhere on the old drive. If not, you MIGHT be able to make it work with some trickery, like mounting the old drive as a folder rather than as a drive.

I just swapped an SSD into my laptop: I put it in a SATA dock, plugged that into my laptop, used Acronis TrueImage to clone the old laptop drive to the SSD, then put the SSD in the laptop. Bing, bang, boom, done.

how easy was it to use Acronis TrueImage? im planning to clone my smaller SSD to a bigger SSD.
