Hey guys,
Long story short I'm refunding my 500GB SSD + 1TB HDD and getting a 1TB SSD.

 

I don't want to re download everything.

My issue is, I have the 1TB HDD, and an m.2 500GB SSD. I Need to copy BOTH contents onto my SSD , but since my motherboard only has one sata m.2 slot I don't know how I can do this.

I was going to clone everything onto the 1TB HDD, since I have enough space on it, but my issue is there's three partitions on my C drive, so im not sure if that will be a problem.

Norton GHOST is the answer to your dilemma. It's not free, but it will do what you need. 

Agh i'm not sure. I've managed to clone everything onto my HDD but the "drag and drop" might cause issues.. 

I think at this point I'm just going to install fresh windows and drivers, but drag and drop game folders and hope it won't cause corruption.
