Procedure to replace the main SSD and install windows & drivers ?

[_albie_]

I am going to receive the Strix G18 (2024) soon and am planning on replacing the main 2TB drive with a 4TB drive.
What is the process to getting the software reinstalled after the hardware is replaced ?

it looks like the process is:

• initialize and setup with the original hardware, then
• do this How do I reinstall windows 11 to my newly added SSD without cloning? - Microsoft Community

best way is  insert your 4TB ssd , go into bios - advance and select restore from cloud , you will have your pc like out of box with restore partition  from asus with windows updated to 24h2
