Hi,
I recently bought a new computer and have a external hard drive case.
My current internal hard drives are full and I want to move some things onto my old computers internal hard drive.
My current computer has Windows Vista and my old computer had Windows XP.
QUESTIONS:
1) Can I just unscrew my old computers hard drive and hook it up to the external drive case?
2) Do I have to partition the drive before I connect it to my new computer? ( I cant get my old computer to run so this wont work )
3) Will there be any risk of losing my current information my current hard drives?
4) Can I keep windows xp on my external hard drive? How would this work?
5) Is there anything else i should know? i am clueless on how to do this....
Thank you in advance!
