I currently have Windows 10 installed on my HDD, and I want to upgrade to Windows 11 on my new SSD. The issue I'm facing is that I need to enable secure boot to install Windows 11, but my BIOS is set to legacy mode and my HDD is using MBR, which I believe prevents secure boot from being enabled (though my SSD is already in GPT mode). Can anyone provide guidance on how to make this transition smoother?

It's usually easier to do a clean install of Windows 11 directly on the new SSD instead of trying to clone your existing setup from the HDD. First, check if your BIOS is updated. If it is, boot into it and enable TMP 2.0, switch to UEFI mode, and turn on secure boot before starting the installation process. This will save you from potential issues with booting and cleaning up your old Windows installation later.
