Hey guys, right now I have an 80gb IDE drive that has my OS and music, games etc. on it. I just ordered another, faster 80gb drive and I plan to make that the OS disk. Whats the best way to make the new disk on the new drive the OS disk, while inactivating the OS on the old drive while still retaining the music files? can I somehow designate the new disk as the OS disk and once its running delete the system files from the old disk?
