Hello TH fellas, first time posting here after lurking for a while.
Unfortunately, lurking and searching for someone that had the same issue as me beforehand didn't yield any results, so I'll get straight to the point.
Currently, I have Win10 installed in a Kingston 250 GB SSD, and another on a 1 TB WD HDD. They were installed in that order.
Currently I'd like to format and re-install OS on the SSD, but last time I did that (deleting all partitions belonging to the SSD and reinstalling through a Win10 bootable usb), for whatever reason I lost my Win10 installation on the HDD.
I've no idea how or why it happened, but I had to reinstall Windows on both drives. Now, the HDD is chock full of data that I'd like to keep, and currently I have no other units to back it up and move it temporarily.
So, the question is: Is there a way to format and reinstall Windows 10 on the SSD, WITHOUT messing with the HDD whatsoever? Or am I just f*cked until I get a working internal/external drive to move data around?
