Hey everyone,
I just bought a new SSD and am getting ready to install it. I've never done this before and I've read and watched countless amounts of set up guides but I have just a couple questions to make sure I do this properly. So before I install the SDD I have to unplug the HDD? Should I backup the HDD before getting ready to install the SDD? Also, since I'll be doing a clean install of Windows on the SDD, what happens to the Windows OS that I left installed on the HDD? Do I need to backup, then wipe my HDD? I plan on using the hard drive as storage for larger files.
Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot everyone and Happy New Year!
