Enlarging hard drive with AutoCAD Architecture 2014 installed

I may have asked this before and want to be sure of the answer. I am an educator with a download copy of AutoCAD Architecture 2014 installed onto a 256 GB SSD. Almost out of space and want to upgrade hard drive to 500 GB SSD. Can I clone the drive or must I deactivate my license and reinstall again and get a new authorization code?

More than likely you'll need to reactivate it.


However, you can try using the License transfer utility prior.

Question, what OS will be on the new hard drive?

Do you have an educational license?  Or was this a paid version?
