If you are using windows, the best thing to do is to do a clean install, of the OS first, then your applications. Leave the less-accessed data on the mechanical drive, but move the often-used files to your SSHD for some kick-ass speed.
If you're on a Mac, there is a good tutorial somewhere about how to do what you want. You can copy your OS to a flash drive, then swap your boot hard disk for a flash drive, then copy the OS to the flash drive without having to re-install it losing all of your settings. The flash drive itself becomes bootable as well of course making installation a snap. I don't remember the URL but if you Google it I'm sure you'll find it.
Good luck! -
Don't reinstall windows. Just clone the drive.
