I may be moving country soon and I don't want to bring my whole computer ( Predator G03-605) however I do not want to lose all the data on my hard drive. I wanted to know that if I were to take the hard drive out of my current Acer computer and put it into another computer would it work properly. My friend who is getting a custom built for Christmas told me that the guy needed to extract the windows key, I've look on these forums and found some pretty good stuff but nothing seems to help me understand what would happen in my situation. Any help to get the Product key, someone to confirm what would happen or how i could get the data/operating system from hard drive and use it would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Extra Information:

-My system came pre-installed with windows 8.1, i then upgraded for free to windows 10

-My model has the GTX 745 and Intel i5 4660
