[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1910755, member: 204485"] If/when you do instal the new SSD dont forget to download the macOS installer and save it to an external HD first. You could use a Bootable clone of your existing SSD and just reverse the process but that would mean transferring all the detritus from your old SSD to the new one and because this is such a good opportunity to perform a "clean" install I recommend you don't miss it. I would download the Monterey installer and create a bootable installer from it on a USB thumb drive (if your device is up to it). You can use a free 3rd party app to do this such as Install Disk Creator from macdaddy.io. to create a bootable installer. You can then boot your MBP from the Thumb Drive, install Monterey, then as suggested in my previous post, drag an drop the stuff you want from a current CCC clone. I'm happy to provide more info on this process if you like. [/QUOTE]
