Moving from Micro SD to SSD with a Raspberry Pi

So I purchased a rack mount that came with a SATA SSD PCB. I want to get away from using the micro SD card and I heard SSDs compliment the pi well but I’m not sure how to go about doing it, do I just flash the ssd like I would a micro SD? If anyone could please give me some advice on the best way to do this I’d be grateful!
