Hello,
So i have an old HDD on my PC that has a storage purpose (data, documents, music, etc.) and would like to swap it for a new SSD for the same purpose.
However, it's very important that the new drive eventually has the same letter (in my case "E:") and data on it.
What is the best way of doing this? Backuping data from old drive to external drive and then copying to a new drive?
Adding new partition/letter, like "F:" for the new drive, then copying all data from old to new, then disconnecting the old drive and change partition/letter, back to "E:" for new drive?
Something else?
