I just bought a new processor and motherboard on a cyber Monday special yesterday, so I'm going to need to reinstall windows on my SSD for this motherboard. While doing so, I'm just going to do a clean install to make sure any old drivers and unnecessary files get removed, as I store almost everything besides Windows, firefox, and a few games on my HDD.
If I unplug my HDD before I do a clean install of Windows on my HDD, am I going to need to format my HDD when I plug it back in afterwards? I don't have anything important to keep, so formatting isn't a problem, but it is more work so basically I'm wondering if all of my programs/files will be fine on my HDD after I reinstall my OS on my SSD.
Thanks
