SSD migration problem
As we all know, the latitude 7200 2 in 1 and latitude 7210 2 in 1 nearly share the same hardware except CPU and mainboard. I'm a user of latitude 7200 2 in 1 and intending to update to latitude 7210 2in1. So what I want to know is whether I could just plug the SSD on my latitude 7200 2in1 directly into the new latitude 7210 2in1 and turn it on without reinstall the system nor I should back up my data and reinstall system?

You would also want to ensure that secure boot is disabled or suspended if you use that. Otherwise, you will trigger bitlocker when moved to a new system. If you don't know your recovery key or how to get it, then you will have to reinstall Windows.

It may or may not work -- do not try without making a full and verified backup of the existing drive (preferably a complete system image using a utility such as Macrium Reflect, etc.).
