Moving to new HD?
I'm currently running Acronis True Image 2015 on a Dell XPS 15 9560 laptop.
I am wanting to replace my 500 GB SSD with a 1TB model.
New HD is a Samsung model NVMe SSD 960 EVO M.2
I've heard there are issues with these PCIe SSDs - is that true?
Can I just run a back up, create a bootable USB flash drive, replace HD & restore from a backup, or are there other considerations?
Any advice appreciated!

If upgrading to 2018 is my best option (assuming that will be my most trouble-free path), I'm fine with that.
BIOS mode is UEFI

Updated to 2018, backed up, created rescue media, replaced HD & did restore, but I would have figured the unallocated space would have come after c...
What can I do to re-arrange?

Mike, the simplest / easiest way to give the unallocated space to where you want it to be is to use a partition manager program to do this. My personal goto program is the free MiniTool Partition Wizard which will allow you to move the three smaller partitions that come after your OS C: partition to the far end of the unallocated space, then expand C: into that space (or create another new partition in that space).
