UPDATE:

I found some third party apps that able to convert MBR to GPT without removing files

But I didn't use it to convert my old HDD
I dont see any problem after using for a while
If there is no problem then dont fix it
Since my HDD is old, I Figure i backup my files to be safe

Hi, guys

I got a new PC that I am going to install using Old Storage Device: 1 Sata SSD (Drive C) and 1 HDD (Drive D & E)

I will install Windows 10 in the Drive C and format the drive

And HDD just swapping from old to the new pc because it has my file in it

 

The question is:

the old SSD and HDD is MBR type partition

I am planning to install GPT type partition into the SSD

Can I convert my old HDD from MBR to GPT without losing the file (Which got 2 partition in it) ?

Thanks
