Second NVMe SSD Storage

[AxelD]

Hey guy's

 

A few months ago i replaced my NVMe SSD (250Gb standard in PC) to a Samsung Evo 500Gb NVMe for more storage.

The motherboard has two NVMe slots, I made an image from the old SSD (slot 1) end copied to my new Samsung SSD (slot 2).

Then i replaced te "old" SSD in slot 1 with the new Samsung SSD, booted-up and it worked!

Now I still have my previous SSD in a box and I want to put it back in for more storage, but I never erased anything form this SSD, it stil has the C-drive and what not.

Now comes my question, is it possible to put my old SSD in slot 2 delete everything on it so it becomes a second storage?

 

Thank you for helping me!

Yes, you can.You only need to put the old ssd and erase / format with a disk management tool program within your OS.Both Windows and Linux have one native program that you can use to do what you want.

Sure you can. Boot into the new drive, open diskmgmt.msc (if you're on windows), delete partitions from old drive, and make new storage partitions instead.
