Advice on formatting C drive - 06/28/23 05:18 PM
I think I built this new Win 11 computer sometime before the pandemic.
In the last ten years, I have found it beneficial to format the drive and start over every two or three years.
Is this logical?
This time I want to replace the C drive with a larger drive on the MB.
I was thinking of using this 2 TB drive.
SAMSUNG 980 PRO SSD 2TB PCIe NVMe Gen 4 Gaming M.2 Internal Solid State Drive Memory Card + 2mo Adobe CC Photography, Maximum Speed, Thermal Control (MZ-V8P2T0B)
This is the current system.
