I'm upgrading computers, and going from a 1tb HDD to a new 500gb SSD, and plan on using the original HDD as just a storage drive, mostly for media. However, if I simply leave it as is, put a new install of windows on my new SSD ad set to primary boot drive, and then copy over some program files (eg games) internally, can I then simply delete all traces of windows and program files/data off the HDD and keep on using it, maybe with a de-frag or something? I'm trying to avoid copying it all to an external device then back again as that's a bit of a pain.
Thanks for reading.
