I have to admit, it has been a while since I've been dealing with hardware.
Purchased a new HDD yesterday, 320gb. WD EIDE.
I have a 60gb in the box right now.
I obviously want to toss the 320 in soon. . .but I don't know if I should just reformat both HDDs, and install XP on the 320. . .or keep XP and everything that is currently on the 60gb hard drive in tact and just format, partition and utilize the 320 as I see fit?
*shurg*
I know it might be an easy choice for some. . .but I really don't know which way to go this time.
A good bit of stuff (music, videos) is on the 60gb, along with obviously the OS. Just wish there was a good way to transfer the data and only have the operating system on the 60gb in it's own partition or something similar. But that would essentially still mean a fresh clean reformat to get rid of all / any artifacts that I have lingering.
