Doing a little upgrade on my current rig. Bought a new SSD and vidya card.
I currently have Windows 7 and would like to stay with 7 as 8 and 10 are both unusable shite.
Is there a way to transfer my current install of 7 on my HDD to the new SSD or should I just format and reinstall everything?

Samsung has a tool made for this.
Windows 7 and up you dont need a new install for a complete component swap.

Look into free disk cloning tools. I've been using Clonezilla which is free, but it's linux based and can be a little fussy and has trouble cloning to smaller HDs than the source. Acronis is generally good, and people used to say Macrium was good, at least 5 years or so ago. It should be free too.

SLC, MLC, or TLC?

Even TLC is too slow for an OS. Let alone quad storage cells. Go with MLC, you get the perfect speed-price-storage ratio for OS install. T/QLC for bulk files
