I want to upgrade the m.2 ssd on my laptop. Could I put a 2.5 inch ssd in my laptop then transfer all the data from the current m.2 ssd to the new 2.5 inch ssd then swap the current m.2 ssd for the new one then transfer all the data from the 2.5 inch ssd to the new m.2? If I can do that then would everything work as it did before the m.2 swap?

Hi @goatz_yt
When you say "...transfer all the data.,.." if you mean straight copying of the data, then no.
You have to make the new drive a clone of the existing drive.
Copying and cloning are not exactly the same thing.
Once you have cloned the new drive then everything will work as before on the new drive.
Here's a video that may help

Hi
I assume you mean "how to move windows to another drive without reinstalling and data loss"，You can certainly do that，there are many cloning software on the market that do this perfectly，such as Clonego，Cloner，Partition Wizard，etc. All you need to do is choose the right tool.
I found this article: How to move Windows 10 from HDD to M.2 SSD without reinstalling and hope this will help you.

Sadly, no. You need to install backup.
