I am going to college roughly 200 miles away from my house I was wondering what I should do to my computer and loop to prepare for the move. Should I drain the loop prior to moving? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I would take out the graphics card and any hard drive cage you can, aswell as anything without any support, directly connected to the case, so it won't break

Put it back in its original packaging.

yes, I'd drain it and remove the gpu and any other parts that could break off from the bumps during travel.

Just like everyone else said- bleed that sucker and just take the no cost-to-self insurance policy route.. don't want to pay too much for a "deductible" if you know what I mean ;)

Buy some extra coolant if needed, not too expensive compared to a whole rebuild lol.
