    Two SSD Two OS


    Is it possible to shrink a partition down 500mb and then use that 500mb as a system recovery partition? I like to try this instead of reinstalling the OS. The end game is I want to use my F8 key to select which SSD to boot to (Win 8 or Win 10) instead of using windows bootloader? I had to reinstall Win 10 and lost some stuff, trying to avoid this on the Win 8 SSD

    :)

    64Gb SSD for OS or 2Tb HDD for storage ?!

    I suggest that you get the 2tb for storage. SSDs are only useful if you want to boot things fast like OS and programs. I actually suggest you get both if you have that many movies.

    Move OS to SSD leave data in HDD

    To do so, follow the steps below:

    Step 1.
    Clone OS to SSD
    .

    Step 2. Enter into BIOS and set the SSD as the first boot disk.

    Step 3. Change the old drive to D:\ (you'd better do a disk backup of the old drive in adavance).

    Hope my answer will give you a hand.
