okay sonic thanks for this information.
The guy knows computers so i have no idea why he left it like the way it did. The thing is had i not downloaded a lot of programs, then i would have not known this until later on. I think he was shocked that he saw there was a 32gb ssd and the 1tb hard drive since hes used to one hard drive only.
Someone on another forum mentioned that no new dell laptop would have a 32gb in and thus its refurbished. Well yes i guess the laptop is refurbished then. The packaging there was no special box. However, the condition of it looks pretty much perfect like brand new. I did pay a little bit less than the regular price though on ebay. However, the reason i bought this laptop was because i needed to get it asap.
Im heading to repair shop to see what he says about this. But just to make sure, i tell him okay my windows 10 didn't get copied to the 250gb hard drive and basically my hard drive is unusable because its basically full. When i tell him this, he should 100 percent know how to do the copy right? Do i need to ask do i need clean install or imaging/cloning? And about 30 minutes this should take right?
I paid $20 for him to replace my hard drive with the SSD and him doing wiping my hard drive so i thought that was pretty good price.
Im not sure how much this will cost but Im just confused why he did not notice this. I mean im someone that isn't familar with computers so is it horrible for me think... okay anything thats downloaded to the computer will go into the 32gb ssd and once its full, anything else is going to the other ssd? Or is my logic bad here? So after he puts windows 10 in the 250gb ssd, what does he do with the 32gb ssd? Does it leave it as is, delete it, take it out? Does taking it out cause issues? Does he have to put the 250gb ssd in the 32gb ssd slot? Also, does he have to make sure the 250gb ssd drive is in the Windows C drive as oppose to the D Drive Volume? Thats what the D drive is called when i click on it.
I have to make sure i have every step written down so when i ask him this, i do not omit anything at all. Sorry for asking this a few times. This is just getting me so frustrated that i have to make sure once he looks over the computer, i wont have any issues afterwards. I will report back once its looked atl.
