How to change SSD without losing Windows 10 OEM license?

Hello!
In general, everything is in the title.
Now there is an OEM version of Windows 10.
I want to change the SSD.
As far as I know, the license is tied to the motherboard, and nothing will change with the change of SSD.
Those. we put Windows 10 from a flash drive to a new SSD, activate it, update it and that's it.
You don't need to untie anything first.
But it is a concern, it may be better to perform a pre-detachment from the iron.
Please advise or calm down.
Thank you!
PS I don't want to migrate. I want a clean system.

I changed the flying HDD on such a laptop. No problem, the system key is not written on the disk.

You can just make a disk clone, through Clonezilla or Acronis. The system will not notice the replacement, it will work as it worked.

Since there is a new disk, install it and you will see everything, there is no risk.
