Hello there,
Just had a hard drive WD40G installed on my home pc.
It was installed as a second HD as my original only had 4G or space. The 4G HD is the"C" and the 40G HD is the "E" I am running win200nt on the 4G HD. I was wondering if making the new drive the one to hold the operating system and such would make my machine more proficient. I have a 1G AMD processor in it also. Either that or is there a way to make the "E" drive the one that all newly loaded programs or files can be defaulted to? OR should I just copy the entire "C" drive to the "E" drive(will that work?) and then wipe the "C" drive clean? Use the "E" drive to house all programs and use the "C" drive for less intensive stuff. I know there is a master/slave issue that goes with this process. I consider myself to be computer literate enought to follow step by step instructions. I didn't put the drive in but I am sure I could figure out how. Please let me know what you think.
Thanks in advance,
