Can I Clone Win 10 Currently Residing on SSD to an HDD on Different Computer?
On my new computer, I currently use ATI2016 to create system images of my Win 10 Pro installation that resides on an SSD. These images are saved to both an internal HDD and to an external USB drive. I have an older computer that is also running Win 10 Pro in dual boot mode with Win 7 Ultimate. ATI2016 is also installed on this older computer.
Since the Win 10 installation on my new computer is more robust and better populated with programs and data, I would like to have it also reside on my old computer in place of what is there. I don't fully understand the differences between cloning and image creation, but I'm wondering if cloning might be a way to go.
Specifically, can I delete the Win 10 installation on my old computer and then install a clone created on my new computer?
Thanks in advance for any help and education...........

Bobbo, thank you very much for the quick and detailed response. Unfortunately, I fail your 1) condition above, so I am out of luck. My new computer is UEFI/GPT and the old one is MBR/Legacy (and it does not supports UEFI/GPT).
Oh well, I was just trying to take the lazy man's approach. Thanks again............
