    Win10 fresh install problem to SSD (no problem with older HDD)

    As I wrote already, I was able to make a fresh install on the original HDD that was factory-installed in the HP desktop.

    I installed the SSD as second disk.

    I deleted all the partitions from the SSD that appeared during the unsuccessful win10 installations.

    I installed free disk cloning software (google and you find several ones) and cloned the HDD to SDD.

    After removing the HDD my PC is running win10 from the SDD, case closed.

  3. I'm Using Unreal Engine 5, It was Installed on HDD instead of my SSD

    I'm Using Unreal Engine 5, It was Installed on HDD instead of my SSD (Since I have a 256GB SSD and a 1TB HDD), However it seemed to be using the SSD instead of HDD as it's primary Drive. Recently it has been using the HDD and therefore crashing. Not sure what to do to make it run on SSD once more

    Hdd Os install

    Welcome to TPU: Please fill out your specs here

    TBH installing win10 on a HDD is going to slow in every aspect, including boot time and updates. It will be well worth it to invest in a small SSD, 60GB for around $50, and install the OS on that and use the HDDs as extra storage.
