    You’d need a fresh install, since the hardware would be very different. I wouldn’t recommend even trying, as I’ve seen folks do similar things with in theory identical hardware and the drive wouldn’t boot on the new, and not on the old when moved back.

      Is there a way to replace the windows installation on the SSD with a fresh one without erasing any of the data on it? Or would I have to move the data to something else

        Not short of backing up the data on another drive. Unless you want to futz with the most core basic drivers that windows will require in order to fully boot. If you don’t know how/want to push drivers via CLI, throwing your porn onto an external and then installing windows on the hardware itself works a jiffy.
