Hardware:
Asrock Z77 extreme6
Storage set to AHCI Mode (and windows was installed with AHCI mode)
1TB HDD volume split into two partitions:
C:\ 704GB (Simple, Basic, NTFS, System, Boot, PF, Active, Primary Partition with windows 7 64bit pro)
H:\ 226GB (Simple, Basic, NTFS, Primary Partition)
2 x OCZ Vertex 3 128GB SSD's striped (RAID0, like spanning) into one volume:
E:\ 223GB (Striped, Dynamic, NTFS)
Backup drives
1TB HDD volume
G:\
200GB HDD Volume
F:\
I've had my SSD's for since 2012, not really doing much. I've put off migrating for so long due to all the garbage I had one my C drive. I have removed all junk software, moved My Music, My Videos and Google Drive to H:\. There is now less than 100gb used on C:\.
My questions are:
1) can I clone a partitioned OS volume ( C:\ ) to a SSD and still have a functioning computer in the end?
2) can I clone a OS volume to the striped SSD volume (E:\) and still have a functioning computer in the end?
3) can I clone a partitioned OS volume ( C:\ ) to the striped SSD volume (E:\) and still have a functioning computer in the end?
4) How do I handle drive letters after all is said and done?
Thanks kindly.
