Hello,
I will be building a new rig later this year, and I'm already getting an SSD, but I decided I didn't want my HDD to go to waste. I have a 1TB Seagate Barracuda from my previous rig from back in 2013. It currently has everything in it from my previous PC, including old folders and stuff. I am going to be formatting it, but one problem I have, though, is that I also have Windows 7 installed on there. I would like to get Windows 10 for free through Windows 7, and I don't wanna have to pay for the OS yet again, so can I just format the entire HDD but keep the OS? I know it may sound stupid, but I'm sorta still new to all this hardware and stuff, and I may ask dumb questions here and there, so please understand. Thank you.
