So you state at the end of the video to replace the old M.2 with the new M.2 in the slot, do you mean i should switch the physical locations of each drive?

[@Sprojak]

I should clarify I have an ATX build with three M.2 slots, 960 evo 500gb(the current boot drive) 980 pro1TB(the one i want to be boot drive) and 970 evo 2 TB respectively, I still want to use the 500 gb as storage but the 1 TB is faster which is why i wanna switch them. Do I still need to switch their locations if im still gonna use them? is one slot different than the others?

[@Peak_Tech]

No as long as you have no data on the 1TB fast drive. The tool formats the drive and clones it to be your new boot drive. MAKE sure to boot from 1TB after you clone, otherwise you will not be able to wipe your 500gb

But what about the open and running windows files that cannot be cloned? Don't they corrupt anything?

[@Peak_Tech]

It's a complete clone and takes it down for a split moment to clone. Hence "Magician Software"
