Backing up a clean OS install

    I have a question regarding OS back ups and clean installs. I am planning on getting an SSD soon ish, I was hoping to be able to clean install windows 7 on it. I have a sony laptop and they said I was unable to get the install key for a clean install if I put in this new SSD.
    I also am aware of the new Windows 10 update coming out for all/most users which I want to try. My question is this, Is my best option to do a factory reset on my W7 laptop and back it up once I do that and upgrade to W10 and do the same so I can then get a clean install from either or in the future? It makes sense to me but I'm wondering is there something I am missing where this is not the best option.
