I have recently purchased a Samsung 840 Pro (256GB). I want to do a fresh install of Windows 7 onto it. I want to transfer some programs from my SSD (Win7 already installed on it), & some programs from my HDD (No OS installed)...to my new Samsung 840 Pro. But, I am hesitant to do so, because I'm not sure what will happen if I have 2 SSD's with the same Windows 7 (Same OEM Version, Same CD) installed on them, & connected to my PC.
I've thought of just doing fresh installs of everything onto my new SSD (I'd rather avoid this), but how do i get the OS off my old SSD...so I can continue using it in my PC?
I'm just not proficient enough in my Technological Super Powers to be confident of what the heck I'm doing! I'm afraid I'm going to blow everything to hell!
