Thanks for reading.
My wife's Asus G750's C: (Windows) drive is currently failing (audible clicking noise and SMART diagnostic showing it is in BAD shape) but still works.
I have another internal HDD - currently the H-Drive - onto which I have cloned the C: using Macrium Reflect.
My plan is to get rid of, and replace, the C: drive as soon as possible but I need to know if it is possible to boot from the H: drive in the meantime so that my wife can still use her computer while we sort out a replacement data drive. We're currently living in France or I'd have already gone to buy one and sort it out that way.
Can anyone let me know if there is something obvious I am missing or if I am doing this entirely the wrong way? I would be very grateful for help as I'm fairly sure C: isn't going to last much longer.
Thanks very much for your help!
