Hi there,
My desktop is running Windows 8.1. I want to put the hard drive from an old desktop (Windows Vista sp. 2) into a "USB 3.0 Sata enclosure ) to expand storage capacity. The (500Gb) sata hard drive has got one partition (c
Windows Vista and data are both on that partion. My worries are: do I have to reformat the drive or will I get away with installing it as it is? Will I be able to read my data files so that I wont have to bother with backups? In case I have to reformate, how long will it take for roughly 250 Gb.
Yours truely,
Øivind Reinemo
