Hi guys!
So recently, my old PC (Win 7) died, and I got a new one (Win 10) as fast as I could afford it. It’s due to arrive today, but I’m still a bit stumped as to how I might transfer my important files to the new PC (the old one won’t boot up).
Now, I’m not exactly sure what would happen if I put both HDDs into the same PC, but this is the idea I eventually arrived at. Would I be able to boot up the windows 10 HDD, and then drag and drop any files that I feel are required from the old HDD to the new HDD? Furthermore, would I be able to format the old HDD after being done with the transfer, and then merge the two HDDs to use them together?
Thanks!
