Hey all,
I recently got a new 1tb hard drive because my 4 yr old HDD is dying. I only use 1 HDD so this new one is meant to replace the old one. I was wondering if its best to just do a clean reinstall of Windows 7, install all the programs, drivers, ect. OR use a program like Partition Wizard and just copy the entire partition over to the new drive?
If I had any fragmentation in the old HDD and I copy over the partition, would the new HDD be fragmented as well?
