How you suggest installing new Win 8 on SSD?

I Have a copy of Win 8 that came with the laptop I bought.
Now, I want to re install Win 8 on the new SSD that I bought.
The question is: Can I do that if I replace the current HD by the SSD?
what options I got?
Thanks
Ben

Option Two.
Reinstall Windows 8 with the OEM manufacturer Recovery DVD/USB disk.

You can make a Microsoft Recovery USB Drive

I would recommend you making the OEM manufacturer's Recovery DVD's or USB drive.
or
You can order the Microsoft official OEM Recovery disks from the OEM manufacturer's website.





The Windows Recovery USB drive & Recovery Partition can be very problematic, I recommend you also make a Windows System Image.

or
look for a 3rd party ,Backup software, which fully supports Windows 8, uEFI, GPT & Secure Boot.
Which is signed by Microsoft.

I don't have any USB OR DVD of the OS. I've got the OS already installed on pc.
Is there other way?

Have you made your Recovery disks?
