ok is is possible to clone existing drive with either one method or the other so it boots from the new drive
Create a bootable USB to start the computer after switching NVMe drives. Then, replace old NVMe SSD with the target empty NVMe SSD manually. Finally, boot computer from bootable USB created by this software and restore the backup image to the newly installed NVMe SSD.

Clone software will make things easier and quicker

will using a new pcie drive be quicker in operation than a ssd sata drive. not bought yet need advice plz
PCIe 4.0 doubles the speed to around 32GB/s, while PCIe 5.0 quadruples it to a colossal 64GB/s, which is impossible for SATA SSDs to deliver.

running 16gb ram which is max so a pcei nvme is the way to go then
Actually NVMe SSDs enable i.e. games to boot up two to three times faster than those installed on a traditional hard drive.

what i intend to do then is buy a nvme drive with external exclosure, plug it in to the laptop, use clone software to copy existing drive, then replace existing drive with new drive and boot off it as normal
Yep give it a try
