new ssd and os install

Don’t know if this is where I should ask…. but if I go ahead and put a new empty ssd in my late 2014 mac mini, can I just re-install OS (mojave at this point, with mac OS utilites? (command & r on boot. ) I don’t want to clone it externally as it has too much info and not enough room on new drive. Thanks!

Sure, you will need to create a bootable Mojave installer with the guide below. Then you should just be able to hold option on startup and choose that bootable USB you made with the guide.
