I've been researching/asking for a while now, and I've come to the conclusion that my current HDD is too old and is in need of replacement (probably with a similarly sized HDD and a smaller SSD for system/frequent files).
Anyways. I am getting a new drive, and I want make sure that I get rid of any bugs, viruses, etc that have snuck their way into my computer over the past 5 years... So how would I be able to back up all my personal files and paid programs exclusively onto my new drives, and then just get rid of the rest? Is there some program/service I can use?
PS: How reliable are the dual drives such as this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822236642
Would something like this be effective for a high-performance desktop for things like 3D animation, gaming, etc?
