Titting about with PC, wondering about a fresh installation of W7.
My machine has 2 500gb discs in it, 1 of which has an old installation of W7 that I abandoned a while back (split a raid pair, so this is the old version of the system at that point)
Thinking I’ll format the drive, set up as a 50gb system bit and the rest for stuff and then transfer the data files over from previous disc (and repeat every now & then – in the meantimes I’ll use the spare as internal backup (have external one as well))
So, opened comp management and saw the screen as below (disc I’m planning to wipe is disc0 (ie G:\ but also F:\ and I don’t know what F is). QUestion is, might F:\ be critical to something ? (I’ve disconnected the disc & still starts with just the other in, but not sure that absolutely everything works without it). Wouldn’t worry, other than I wonder if disc0 might somehow be the more important one to my motherboard.
Do any of you clever people know what it might be and if it’d be safe to wipe ? (might it just be a vestige of the raid setup)?
(I will be doing a full external backup before I start)
