    How to change windows on SSD without touching the hard drive


    I have a 250 GB SSD for my "C drive" and only my windows is in there. all other files are in a 1.0 TB hard drive. I am currently using widows 10 and want to change my windows to 11. is there a way to change windows on SSD and don't touch the files on hard drive ? I want SSD to become empty and a new windows take its place in there. My main problem is that I don't install my applications in "C drive" and 157 GB of space is full in my "C drive". if there is a way to format my SSD and change the windows but don't touch the hard drive pleas tell me.And also pleas say if it is normal for my drive

    :)

    Hard drives listed as SSD drives

    Upgraded to Win 10 Pro from Win 7 Pro.

    Have 2 Hard drives in Raid 1 set up.

    Win 10 lists these drives as SSD drives in System Properties.

    How do I change the listing of these drives to HD so I can optimize them?

    On the contrary, showing off "slow tech" by adding a window to a hard drive is a "dumb" idea. Do you really want to be showing off a whole "7200-10000 RPM of power" or would you rather show off a plain SSD drive? (If you really desire to "show off")

    Adding any window to any drive is just stupid. I just suggested an easier option for you since manufactures don't put windows on the latest hard drives.
