So, ive installed my 500gb ssd into my pc. I went into the BIOS and it recognized it as well as windows. So, now I want to move only some programs and files onto my new ssd. I got the samsung data migration, but that clones everything, and I dont know if I have to partition or format it first. Then, do you know any software that can migrate only specific things. 

Thanks

Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

What I would do myself, is do a clean window install. During the install, format all drive and partition, then delete, all partitions.

 

 Once windows is install on main drive, i would install games and programs, were I want.

 

Just my 2 cents. A lot of work, but in the long run, I thinks it's the best way
