Hey guys.
Really simple one here, I'm just unsure which way is best to do it. My current setup is as follows:
C: - 120gb SSD - Essential windows files
E: - 1tb HDD - Majority of program files (This is the drive I want to replace)
F: - 250gb SSD - important games/programs
G: - 2tb HDD - Storage drive for pictures, videos etc.
I want to replace the 1tb E: with a new 2tb HDD, but ideally keep the drive name as E: so not to confuse any programs. (I really can't be bothered with "XXX" can't find "YYY", would you like to specify a location?) Is there an easy way to do this?
I could connect my new HDD and initialise it, then copy all the files over via windows explorer, but to do this I'd have to assign a different letter to my new drive. Would it be sensible to change my current E: to a different letter before initialising my new drive, then setting the new drive to E: and copying over?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
