Hi
I am about to install a new 160 gb hard drive..i already have a 60 gb in there with all my stuff on...i have 10gb left.
what i want to know is when the 2 drives are installed...can i just simply drag and drop programs over to the new 160 gb drive from my 60 gb drive to free up some room.

and also..what is the best to do...leave windows xp which is what i have installed now on the 60 gb or install win xp on the 160 gb drive.and format the 60 gb after i have dragged the programs/files over ?

when i say programs i mean stuff i have saved after downloding them off the net.

my pc is really slow at the moment, so im assuming it's the 60gb which is slowing everything down.

can someone give me their opinion on this.

Cheers

Gymrat
