    Formatting an OS drive transferred from another computer


    Alright, so I'm not entirely sure what forum this should go in. I need help with formatting my old hard drive.

    When I built my new computer, I installed Win 7 on my SSD. However, I still had my old OS on a HDD I transferred over from my last computer, now marked O:\. Because this is a new build and it has never used the O:\ drive as the system drive, would it be alright to format it?

    Just for the visual, here are my drives:

    Delete the partition, format and you well have a 300gb drive. Partition Magic bootable cd works great for that kind of operation.
