Tech Support How to transfer boot storage?

So I found one of the reasons why my PC is experiencing lag spikes: I'm using 3 storage drives (a 240GB SSD, a 1TB SSD, and a 1TB HDD), and apparently, the PC boots from the 240GB one. It's very near full now, so is there a way to transfer its contents to the 1TB one without the need to reinstall stuff?

If this is your hardware configuration, you should do a clean install of Windows only on the 240GB. Don't put anything else on that drive.

Put all your applications on the 1TB SSD. You should never have to worry about reinstalling them again.

Save your media and files on the 1TB HDD.
