Hello,
I moved a SATA 1 drive from a SATA 1 controller on one computer to a SATA 3 controller on another computer. The source and destination OSes are both Win 7 32-bit. The drive was originally partitioned with 2 partitions on the original computer with data on both partitions. The drive is recognized on the new computer (SATA 3 controller) in the BIOS and OS, BUT there is only ONE partition (almost full disk size) with data on it from only one of the original partitions. Do I need to connect it to an available SATA 2 port on the new computer or re-attach to the old computer and hope the data is all still there?
THanks in advance!
