Hi all,
Am building a new i7 system, I want to put 2 SATA drives one is 250 gb and one 320gb. the 250 is used as an extra drive from another PC and is only one partition, the 320 is new.
what I want to do is make the 250 gb the main hard drive with windows, and make 2 partitions (i.e: C and D), but not sure how to do that when its currently 1 partition called G on the old PC (Do I just use the XP CD?) and add the 320 gb as the extra drive with 1 partition (hopefully E)
btw the 250 gb drive has some data that I need, is there any way to do this without reformatting all of the hard drive?
What would be the simplest way to do this? this is first time building my own PC, and I have no experience RAID or all these things...
appreciate the help.
