I'm finally getting a new PC (upgrading from Vista) which will come pre-installed with Windows 8.1. It comes with 8GB RAM and a 2Tb HD. I've also purchased a 240Gb SSD which I would like to use for the OS.
Question: Before I even turn on the new PC can I pull the 2Tb HD out, copy all the files from the HD to the SSD and swap them so that I start from scratch with the SSD. Or will I have to go through the initial set-up of the OS on the HD and then migrate/swap to the SSD? I'd like to use the 2Tb drive for storage and the SSD strictly for system and OS.
Cheers,
