I'm so sorry as I'm struggling to understand how this works, although there are many articles and discussion related to this - but they are confusing to me.
I'm replacing my secondary HDD (not my boot drive) with a new HDD. I'm not changing my PC so I'm hoping all files can be migrated to the new drive exactly the same way as how it was running, to save me the problem in reorganizing every shortcuts and file path.
May I know what's the steps I need to take? Just take the old drive out, insert the new one connecting the same cable? Then I copy paste the files from the old HDD via a dock station into the new HDD?
I read from somewhere it is not that straight forward, as it involves installing drivers, and risk of file corruption?
Please enlighten me with a good guide.
Sorry if it is a stupid question... 🙁
