swapinig my primary and only hard driver to an SSD

Hello I remember reading the how to some were but i cant find that post

I want to install an SDD on my new laptop, and i will like to avoid reinstalling everything from A to Z

Is thre an easy way, lets say coping my back up on a USB key 16 Gigat?

Or what other solution i have?

My original system was windows home Chinese on Alienware M14x I upgrade it to Ultimate to be able to change the languish, also did all the Windows Updates.

So If i delete all i will be force to install the original Chinese system and that will be difficult as i dont read Chinese.

Any clues be must appreciated thanks
