Hi there,
I am building a new gaming PC in few weeks and have been doing some research and asking questions on this forum. Now, I already have a 1TB HDD which is partitioned into 7 drives in my current PC. All I wanna know is when I connect it to the new PC and start with fresh Windows 7 install, will the new Mobo recognize the old partition and allow me to install new Win7 in C: or is the partition not recognized at all? Also will I have an option to format the whole HDD including partition and use it like a new HDD at this point (when I am installing win7 in new PC)? And if you have any advice from your previous experiences please share them too.
EDIT:
This is my new spec:
AMD FX 6300
ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0
Seasonic S12II 620 Watts
G.Skill RipjawsX DDR3 8 GB (2 x 4 GB)
Cooler Master HAF 912 (with transparent side panel)
Geforce GTX 660
Thanks!
