Tommorow, I'm rebuilding my gaming computer with an i5-3570k and I'm really excited. The only thing is, I am reusing my current 500gb HD in my rebuild as my boot and storage drive and I don't know how to go about formatting the drive while I'm still using it in my current machine. I am currently using the majority of the drive(really need to upgrade), but I don't have any files that I need to keep as the computer is strictly used for gaming.
So, could I just create a partition to install my OS tommorrow and then format the current partition? Is there any way to then combine the two partitions?
