Hello! My Lenovo y700 is kind of falling apart, so I have a new laptop coming today. It is the Lenovo Legion 5 that has a 512GB NVMe SSD loaded with Windows 10. I also want to "transplant" my old 1TB Samsung SSD from my other laptop. I'm trying to decide what is the best approach to running the new system. I want to maintain all of my old applications and I want to leave the 512GB NVMe (mostly) free for statistical processing in Pixinsight. It's my understanding that these NVMe drives are faster than my current SSD and it's not uncommon for Pixinsight to be handling upwards of 300GB of image files in a single workflow. I will be installing 64GB of RAM to give the application every possible advantage.
1) is it possible to use my old drive as the boot drive on the new system? And would I be able to freely move files between the SSD's?
2) Al I thinking about this wrong? Is there a better approach?
Thanks,
Damien
