What do i have to do before moving a hard drive to my new pc ? On my new pc i have a new 60gb ssd for my OS Windows 10. For example do i have to fully clean my hard drive to re use it on my new pc or can i simply just put it in my new pc?

The new pc will recognize the drive.. You can actually just go to it and format it.

Not sure about win7 but win10 open file manager.. Click on "this pc" find the new drive.. Right click and find format. It will delete everything on it for you on the new system. Make sure u dont format your boot drive o_O
 


You can't format a boot drive from inside Windows, it won't let you.
