I removed all of my documents, pics, videos, etc to an optical drive before migrating OS to SSD.
I'm wondering why the partitions marked in red in the images below (old System and OS) still have content in them. Shouldn't everything have been moved?
Links if images aren't showing-
Disk Management 1
Disk Management 2
Leftover Folders
Since the Recovery partition didn't migrate to SSD I copied it to new, faster HDD (E:\) then deleted original partition which is now unallocated space. Or should the Recovery partition be on the SSD?
G:/ is where I originally had docs, pics, etc. The third image shows what's left, including Program Files.
I want to put at least the resource heavy programs on the SSD, correct? What's the correct way to move them and into just a folder or a partition? I'm not sure why but I thought they were going to move when I did the OS migration.
I'm looking to either use the G:\ disc drive as backup or possibly move it to a different computer, so i'd like to remove all data and partitions. What about the rest of the folders/files? Do I move them to E:\ as the primary HDD? Do I need all of them and are any tied to the drive letter? I didn't want to just do it and cause myself a headache.
Thanks for your help!
