BTW, I ordered a new MB that will arrive early next week. Same exact board simply because I'm familiar with it and it got good ratings on NewEgg and Tom's Hardware.

Anyway, my boot drive is one of those Samsung VNAND M2 SSD drives that sits on the motherboard. This drive has my OS, and all of my files and such. I have a mirror image of my system from about a week ago on my mechanical storage drive, so I'm not going to lose much if things go pear shaped and I have to do a full system restore.
Question, when I install this new MB, which is the same exact make/model of this seemingly dead one and I install my boot drive on the new MB, will it boot just like the same day the system failed, or am I going to have to go through additional steps because the boot "process" (for lack of a better term) is going to "see" a different MB and force me to go through additional steps?
Thanks.
