moving the partition containing "my documents"
I currently have the "my documents" folder (and other folders) on a separate partition (E:) on a 2nd drive (drive 2). Drive 2 is failing (slowly) and I want to move E: off it, back to drive 1 with C:, but keeping it as a separate partition.
I plan to use Partition Wizard to copy the old E: to drive 1 and label it M:. Next I need to switch the drive letters for both partitions and reboot. When all is good, I can delete the old E: and hopefully be on my merry way.
It's been a LONG time since I created the E: partition, so I just wanted a sanity check. My eventual goal is to have my system partition on an SSD and everything else rotational. That way, system restores/etc. are independent of my data. I'll be replacing Drive 2 VERY soon and will move E: to it. I have another partition on Drive 2 and will do the same with it, but it is independent of the system pointers that "my documents" has built into it.
Can you tell me if my plan is OK?? Did I forget anything?
