I want to combine my two drives but one has windows 7 and the newer has windows 10. Should I wipe the windows 7 drive clean first

If they are 2 physical drives you can just reformat drive with W7. Would be good idea to delete all the partitions on it using a program like http://www.pcdisk.com/download.html because Windows makes at least another partition usable only in that system and would be just take space once W7 is not on it.
After you BOOT from W10 disk you can do one of these things http://lifehacker.com/5986883/how-to-combine-multiple-hard-drives-into-one-volume-for-cheap-high-capacity-storage To make them appear as one drive with one letter.


No I mean I want both drives to work with the windows 10 and get rid of the windows 7. I'm just not sure how to do that yet. I want them to act as one drive. I don't even know if it can be done. Thanks Pam
