Partitioning help

Hello, so I'm trying to upgrade my 120 gb ssd to a 1tb ssd that I have had for some time... after using mini tool 10 to copy the drive over windows is recognizing every different partition of windows on the new drive as its own individual drive. Is this a problem? How do I fix this? Can I just replace the drives physically right now and boot up? would it work? I'd like to get this done so I can replace the old one but as of now the new one is just connected through a usb 3 to sata adapter.

Thanks in advance for any help!image.png.3acc6c2ac5dc6e9cf81c7603caa99d16.png

(F drive is a hard drive I use for large file storage, everything but C is what the issue is. I thought it would all come in under one letter.

Just go to the disc menagmend, and delete the mounting point, for the extra partitions.

i assumed the problem is that they are visible?

Well the problem is that they are visible and from what I understand its a problem that they are all taking there own drive letter right? or will that be fixed if I boot to the drive?

Yes, just delete the mounting point for the one you don’t want to see,  letter in this example, and you won’t see them in file explorer window.
