Adding Sata SSD

[Ahoy Hoy]

Hi
I have a 4tb Samsung Sata SSD and there about a terabyte of important photos on it and 3TB of games.

I've just finished building a new PC and Im transferring it from a old computer to the new one.

How do I add it to the system without having to format it and wiping the data.

Just plug it in and access it using admin rights. If it was previously your boot drive, make sure in the BIOS your new SSD is set as the first boot priority.

@Ahoy Hoy confirm if you're simply adding the 4TB SSD to your new system alongside the new SSD or wanting to migrate everything from the 4TB to the new SSD. The title says "adding" and body says "transferring" which are different.
