ok reinstall my old hard drive today and saved my bf4 files then was able to get them on the new ssd
by following this and no prob with it at all
Moving BF4 to another location is REALLY easy, people are overcomplicating it...
This is what I did:
In Origin Settings > Advanced: Change Install location to SSD (Close and exit Origin)
Copy BF4 folder from (for example) E:\Games\BF4
To (for example): D:\Games\BF4
Once copied open Origin and click on Download BF4, it will attempt download but realise files are already there, It will update settings and shortcuts in about 2 minutes.
Done.
hope this helps someone else

in case game says download naval strike to play after above steps then do a regedit to repair missing maps
ou will need to reinstall the game, or update the registry key to show that you have the expansion installed.

Back up your registry
Log out and fully exit Origin
Open your Registry Editor - Type in regedit in the Search Menu and press Enter
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Wow6432Node > EA Games > Battlefield 4
Check for a folder named Xpack1 under the Battlefield 4 folder
If it exists -> Click on Xpack1, on the right pane see if there is a string named
Installed. Double click on Installed string and set the Value data to True
If it does not exists -> Right-click on Battlefield 4 select New then select Key a new folder will be created, name it Xpack1 right-click on Xpack1 > New > String Value > name this string Installed on the right-pane, double-click on Installed, set Value Data to True
5 . Exit Registry Editor
as a side note you need to repeat the steps for Xpack0 and Xpack2
Once all these steps have been completed, log in to Origin and start up Battlefield 4 and join China Rising Maps
I got this help from EA online assist.
