I just bought a Laptop Dell Inspiron 3505 it comes with pre-installed Windows 10 on its HDD which is 1 TB and its extremely slow to boot up and load things So I bought a Kingston 250GB SSD and installed it. Now I need some guidance in order to SHIFT windows 10 to SSD in order to speed things up with a freeware for example Macrium Reflect.



My main concern is not to lose the OS Win 10 that comes with the laptop and other worries are;



1. Will shifting OS to SSD will speed things up?

2. Is Macrium Reflect Free is good for that operation?

3. Should I clone all partitions recovery and such.? It has one EFI partition, 3 recovery partitions, 1 OS partition and two data partitions (See image for reference).

4. After I clone, how to make the SSD Bootable?

5. Should I format the OS Partition in the HDD in order to make use of it for other purposes, and how to make it a normal data partition?

6. I don't want to lose my OS that comes with the Laptop, what other precautions should I take?





Please help, thank you so much.
