How to prepare in use, Samsung 840 120GB ssd for new motherboard & cpu
I just installed the ssd not too long ago but, will be replacing the mothetboard & cpu soon. Can I remove the ssd and install it in my backup pc tower to format or,do what ever needs to be done to make it to where all I have to do is reinstall in case, and then install fresh copy of Win 7 pro OS? I'm not quite sure what I have to do to the ssd (which is the one I'm using right now) before installing fresh win. copy again after the new motherboard and cpu install. When I look in diskmgt. it shows 100mb at the beginning of the disk as reserved. Will Windows do this by it's self during fresh install? Or, do I have to set the disk up myself in order to have the 100mb. reserved partition again? It will be a while till my components get here and any help will be greatly appreciated! Thank You! :) I will provide more info if needed!
