Thanks for your answers. The HDDs are not considered to be RAID members after wiping, right? Do you know any tool that I could use which automatically keeps a backup of one drive on the other one? And what about OS? Do I have to install Windows on both of them or does the backup tool makes the...

I have a system with 2 HDD's in RAID1. I want to remove those 2 drives and upgrade to an SSD. But I would like to keep 1 of the HDD's as a backup (OS and programs necessary for work installed) so I can connect it back and have my computer working in case of SSD failure. Also, I want to move the...

Well, after some more searching I found out that the two discs work as mirrors (RAID 1), so consider this thread out of topic. Thanks for your time and answers though!

http://prntscr.com/evhk0c It's not visible anywhere in disk managment. Should I follow this guide maybe? http://defaultreasoning.com/2009/05/29/unhide-the-recovery-partition-on-a-basic-disk-with-diskpart/ or any other you could suggest?

http://prntscr.com/evh5zc (sorry for non-english language). Well, maybe I was wrong. I just noticed recovery partition is 450MB, not 450GB. So the second 500GB disc isn't shown in disk Management. I'm kind of confused on what this disc is used for and if I should do something about it before...

So I am about to install an SSD and format my workplace's computer. After opening the case to check the parts before I proceed, I noticed that there is an extra HDD that doesnt show anywhere on the computer except BIOS. After some googling I found out that this drive is used as a "Recovery...

Alright, thanks for your answers :)

*UPDATE* This is the sound my card makes: http://vocaroo.com/i/s16Ejp0r8SiC I used MSI Afterburner to "play" with the fan speed. This noise appears when I manually set the fan speed at 50% up to 75%. Any ideas what might cause this problem? (No cables are touching the GPU).

I connected 6 pin MOLEX and 8 pin from PSU but now the GPU makes a weird noise -like a light scratching- when I open a game. The noise isn't the usual one that comes from fans. Btw, performance (FPS) has increased.

The PSU is not that bad, it's CoolerMaster Elite 600W. It just doesn't have the required cables/pins. Call me stupid but I hadn't noticed that for some months there was only the 6 pin connected to my GPU. So now I am wondering what is better as a temporary solution until I get a new PSU.

My PSU only has one 6+2 pin cable and my GPU needs one 6 pin and one 8 pin input. So I am going to use a MOLEX adaptor for a few days before I get a new PSU. My GPU had 2 adaptors with it: one 6 pin and one 8 pin. My question is should I use: The 6 pin MOLEX adaptor and the PSU's 8 pins on the...

Thanks. Could my GPU have been damaged from this?

Okay, I think that I found the problem. Seems that I'm stupid enough that I hadn't noticed something. The guy that set up my pc didnt say anything about missing pins from PSU to GPU. So, my PSU only has a 6+2 pin while my GPU has a 6 and an 8 pin input. There is currently connected just the 6...
