  1. Moving my OS from HDD to SSD


    Hey guys,


    Doing a massive overhaul of my computer and finally moving my OS to my HDD to SSD. New everything, the only things I am keeping is my power supply and HDD.


    I read that to do it without wiping, I'd need a cloning tool. However, I don't care enough about that. All my important information and documents are backed and Steam backs up saves to the Cloud. So I am all good to wipe the HDD to perform this.


    The main question is; how do I do this?


    I understand the concept, but not how to achieve this.


    Please, and thanks for any advice.

    :)

  3. Is it possible to move the OS from SSD to HDD ?

    hi

    i'm thinking of adding an ssd to my computer but i don't want to format the OS since it's tiring to re-add my emails and other stuff, so i wanted to know is it possible to move the OS from SSD to HDD without reinstalling the window?
