I'm planning something similar. I currently have W7 sitting on a NVMe SSD, and a huge SSHD for data and stuff. I now purchased another SSD, this time a simple SATA drive. Since W7 doesn't take full advantage of the NVMe drive I will copy it over to the SATA drive, then remove it and upgrade the existing NVMe drive to W10.
After that, I can choose to disable the W10 partition in BIOS until I feel like 'upgrading'.
I've also thought to keep the W10 partition active and effectively run a dual boot system, but I'm not sure that would be legal with just one license. Technically, since I have W7 Pro (and would then upgrade to W10 Pro), I would have the right to downgrade any time later. So, when running W10 for any amount of time, I would have the right to switch back to 7. But, do I have the right to always keep that W7 installation ready? I feel I should be allowed to, but I don't feel like digging through the heaps of legalize that are the MS licensing conditions.
Anyone in the know? Can I run a dual boot W7/W10 Pro system with just one license?

Griff made a manual for how to do the upgrade as painless as possible, I can't be arsed to find it just now, but it should be searchable.

Weird. My photocopier is full of peanut butter. Usually, it jams.

You have to make certain that the paper is pectin there the right way.

Weirder, my squirrels prefer caviar over peanuts/peanut butter. So, no jam in my copier.

Has anyone ever noticed getting reputation points from an old Lounge post? For instance, I just glanced at my Reputation History and noticed I got 24 points for a post[^] being upvoted. Since I didn't really recognize the thread title immediately ("Chris'isms"), I followed the link and discovered that the post is from January 2013!

I can't recall where, but yesterday I saw a link to that thread. Someone was referencing it which is likely why you got an upvote now.

Some of the hamsters are getting old, and have slowed down. It takes them a while to get back to Hamster Central with the rep points. Three years sounds about right, considering the number of Fermented Sunflower Seed Bars they have to pass to get there!
