Using Different Drives for Boot and Storage

ClockWorksMC · Jul 4, 2015

So I have a solid state drive with Windows 7 and user accounts on it. I also have a raid 0+1 with 4 240gb ssds with windows 7 and the user files that I want. How do I delete the user files from the single ssd and Windows from the RAID setup so that I can use the single SSD for OS's and the RAID setup for storage? Thanks!

Microsoft heartily discourages moving the /User/ folder to somewhere other than the C drive.

What size is the OS SSD?

The OS SSD is also 240GB

The C drive is the RAID setup- it has both Windows and the User files. I only want to delete the user files from the single 240GB SSD so that I can use that solely for boot.

ClockWorksMC :

That should be plenty. Leave the User stuff on there.

I'm not sure what you mean- I'd just like to know how to remove everything but the OS from the SSD. Forget what I said about the RAID setup- I'd like to leave that as it is.

ClockWorksMC :

2 options.
1. Uninstall all the applications
2. Clean install

Once you start using an OS and installing things, everything becomes part of the OS. Registry entries, AppData, etc, etc.
You can't just 'move' that stuff.
