Thank you for this "deep dive" into the NucBox! Wasn't sure about the process, so I waited for someone trying it first... :) Are you running Win11, if so, how to transfer the OS to the new SSD?
I would install New Win 11 on the New disk. You can download the drivers from the manufacturer's website, copy them to a usb (so that you have the drivers ready because win does not have a LAN and Wi-Fi driver in it)... or Another option You could create an image of the disk, then restore it to New But for you need an m.2 to usb adapter and a computer with enough space to copy the ssd...
@@weinbergfahrer4048 Don’t just do a clean reinstall and get the drivers from the official website. The drivers from the manufacturers could be infected, especially if your PC is as cheap as mine. It only cost me less than 75€.
