Hi, I have a 128gb ssd that i run my os. And a 1TB HDD. The SSD is just not enough space for me. So I decided to get a 250gb since i thought it will live to my standards. Now my question is... Is there a way to install windows 10 on the new ssd but without deleting files from 1tb (I reallly dont care about deleting things from the 128gb) or would that not even effect that drive? Im really lost right now. Since i dont want install over 40 games that i play that are on my HDD. Nor loose some data. I hope you understand my question and thank you.

what you want to do is unplug datas cables from the 128 and 1tb drives. plug in the new ssd install windows on it. update wqindows and the drivers...then power off and plug the other drives in. you may have to reinstall some aps like steam and other. you have to point steam to your old folder on the hard drive to resink it.

okay thanks, but one more question. What do you mean by "you have to point steam to your old folder on the hard drive to resink it." my apologies.
