I have 4 SSDs, with one that has the system OS, and 3 HDDs. My older HDD drive is starting to act up and being that it's nearly full, I'd hate to lose all my data, about 8TB worth. I purchased another HDD to replace it with, and was wondering if I could essentially clone the old drive to the new one without using a cloning software. The contents of the old drive are 90% games, and maybe 10% regular software. The OS is on a separate SSD so no system files would be moved, as well as the drive letter would be changed to the same as the old drive. Is there a simple process for this, or should I just use a clone software? If so, any recommendations?
The objective is simply to make it so nothing happened, and so I can run the same games from the new drive without reinstalling them or running into registry errors.
