Hi all! this is my first tom's hardware forum post
I have a question about an ssd as a boot drive, but more of a "how" than "why." I had heard about the flooding in thailand right before I was to build my computer, and quickly snatched up a seagate barracuda 1tb hdd for $55, and haven't gotten an ssd yet. I'd like to get a 120Gb ssd, or around that size, for a boot drive, but I already have my OS installed to my hdd. Is there a way to move my OS to a new ssdand not have to do a new install? But if I did, how could I remove the OS from my hdd without formatting and losing my saved game data (60+ hours of skyrim )?
