Hello, I just bought a Toshiba Tecra Notebook which originally had Windows 8 on it, but now has Win 11. I bought it with Win 11 already installed. The SSD on it is only 256 GB so I want to change it. I have an HP 15 with Windows 10 on a One terabyte SSD. The HP won't take Windows 11, so I'm wanting to know if the One TB SSD will take Windows 11 if I put it in the laptop that originally had Windows 8 on it?

It should work IF the Tecra has a place to mount it, the specs should give that information. I have a few Notebooks that use the SATA HDD or SATA SSD but newer ones have the NVMe SSD drive, different mountings. The Dell Vostro I'm now on has a 256GB NVMe drive but also has a place to mount a SATA drive, either HDD or SSD which would give additional storage. Adding another drive could impact the length of runtime when on battery only,
