Currently, I am running a 940 BE, on a Biostar motherboard, with a 500gb 7200rpm WD HDD. However, I'm rebuilding most of my system, installing a 250GB 840 evo SSD, Extreme4 z87 motherboard, 8gb Gskill Ripjaw DDR3 1866 and an i-5 4670k (haven't purchased MoBo and processor yet, was looking at microcenter bundles). Currently running Windows XP.
Basically, I'm going to install the new components and load a copy of Windows 7 pro I got through school onto the SSD. There is not a terribly large amount of data I want to save from the 500GB HDD, mainly just some music and a few key files. Main question: Once I've installed Win7 on the SSD, will I be able to access my data on the HDD? Or will I need an external enclosure? Recommendations to make this a smooth transition?
