Hey fellas,
I just installed a SSD and did a fresh Windows install and I hooked up my old HDD to use as a data drive.
I backed up all my important data to an external already, and I want to get a fresh start on my old HDD, but I'm not sure what the best way to format it is.
In My Computer I currently see:[cpp]Local Disk (C
DVD RW Drive (D
System Reserved (E
Local Disk (F[/cpp]The E: drive is what's confusing me about formatting. I think it's a remnant of having that drive as my boot drive, but I'm not sure what to do with it.
Also, I switched to AHCI mode before doing the installs.
Thanks!
EDIT: Added the bit about AHCI.
