So I am getting a new PC and was wondering if I can use the hard drive in my current PC and move it over to the new computer. My current PC is a Dell prebuilt Inspiron 660 with a Pentium g2030 and 4gb of ddr3 ram. No Idea what the motherboard is. The new parts I am getting is an Intel I5 4690k, 8gb of ddr3 ram, and an Asus Z79-a motherboard. I am worried that the Hard drive will not work with the new system. Also the hard drive is using Windows 10.
