Hello everyone,
I am hoping someone can help walk me through the steps of transferring all the data on my two current ssds to a new bigger one. Right now I have two 1TB samsung 970 ssds, one with windows 10 and some programs/files and the other with just programs/files. They are both pretty much full and I am currently in the process of building a new PC. I plan on buying a new 2TB samsung 980 SSD (possibly 2) to install in my new pc. I want to move everything on my two current 1TB SSDs to the new 2TB one and then completely wipe the old two drives so I can then give that old PC and those two drives to someone else to use with nothing on it.
I just have never cloned drives before and don't know if I need a third party software or not and I don't want to mess anything up. Also my current PC mobo only has two slots for these nvme drives and both are used by the two 1TB ssds already installed so I don't know the correct order of transferring to the bigger 2TB. I'm assuming I will have to remove one of the full 1TB ssds so I can install the 2TB one and then transfer over one ssd at a time. I am not going to have some parts for the new PC for a little while so I need to use my current PC to do this. Thank you guys.
