So I just recently bought a 2TB hard drive and I want to transfer about 800GB of things from my 1TB hard drive to my 2TB but I don't want to transfer the OS or anything. Is there a efficient, fast, safe way to do this without harming my hard drive?
What types of "things"? Just put all the files you want to transfer into one folder, and the drag it to the other HDD. None of this will harm anything, as hard drives do not wear from making a lot of rights as SSDs do.
Why do you want to transfer stuff from one HDD to another? Why not utilize both? I mean leave your stuff on the 1TB HDD and start utilizing the other. Who said you can only use one HDD?

I want to leave one hard drive for games and the other for the OS and other programs like Photoshop and such.

Things as in files but alright.
Just drag them over. You can ctrl-click all the folders/files you want to transfer and then move them over. Or you can copy and paste them over if that suits you.
