Hey Just a quick question.
I just built a new custom PC and i have a extra HD that has a previous version of win 8 on. I want to wipe that drive clean and just use it for data stoarage. Im concerned that if I plug that drive into a Sata port that that drive will also try to boot into the OS that it has installed and somehow might mess up my SSD hard drive (only drive).
Can someone help me and give me the steps of what I need to do.. Thanx
