Can you transfer Windows over the SSD?

Hello, I'm currently building a new PC and would like to install Windows from my old PC on it, but the old PC has an OEM key. So I was wondering if I can install Windows on my old SSD and then install the SSD in my new PC so that Windows starts up immediately when I start it up for the first time, without a key, etc.

When changing the SSD with Windows from the old to the new PC, driver problems can occur due to other motherboard hardware.

Since it’s a Win10/11 OEM the license may be not to another PC.
You will have to get a new product key for the new PC.
