Transferring W7 to SSD
Hey guys, My current HDD is getting old and shows some wear with Crystal Disk Info. So I want to move it to another drive of mine, Samsung EVO 850, 250GB.
This is the computer in question:
HP Pavilion dv7-6c23cl
I am wanting to create an Image of my HDD. I was thinking to Image the "System" Drive and the "C" Drive because I don't need or want the Recovery D Drive anymore, and have some Recovery Disks if needed. And just drop those two Partition Images on the new SSD, well, my used SSD that has an Old install of Windows 7 and Linux Mint in a Dual Boot situation from an old laptop that I don't use anymore.
My question is, do I need that "HP_TOOLS" "E" Partition once I get rid of the Recovery D Drive?
I will leave Diskpart and Disk Management if that helps. Thanks, Nasty7
