I'm happy it is working haha, however I now need to completely delete everything on "disc 0" including windows 10, because I need that space for music and photos!

Since you have an active partition on each disk, it is not clear which disks bootmgr boots your system. I suggest you first disconnect disk0 and check whether the system boots OK. If that works, then you can proceed.
I disconnected disk 0 and my computer still boots!! I was a little scared haha.... Does this mean I can just format the other one now?
You seem to be OK. Your bootmgr is on one of the other disks. It is not clear because each one has an active partition. Therefore one should always check.
I disconnected all except for C, and it still booted, now can u steer me to an easy way to delete all the protected windows files?
Everything that is windows 10 on the old hard drive.
Welp, that was instantaneous, and not at all as dramatic as I thought.
Thanks very much WHS and Layback Bear. I truly appreciate the help !
Here is a little information to remember skeptikill
When a partition like now in your case (C), on disk (2) is marked with Boot and Systems;
that is a bootable drive. Systems is the key word.
Now I suggest is removing all Actives from your other partition on your other drives.
As your Disk Management looks now you should mark G, H, and K partition as inactive.
This tutorial by Brink should help you with that.
Partition - Mark as Inactive
Then post another picture of Disk Management.
After I look at the picture if you care to, I can guide you to things a little better.
Nice neat and orderly and labeled.
Completing this tutorial it would make thing better for those trying to help you.
