Ok so my current PC only has a 2.5 SSD 250BG . Well i ordered a M.2 NvMe SSD , just for more storage . My question is should i clone everything from the 2.5 Sata over to the M.2 and make that my main or does it not even matter ?

you can do whatever. im just saying a brand new start would be best. the new drive is worth installing brand new

Agree here, could also just use a different storage than nvme unless you really want that speed
