Hi guys,

Currently have win7 on a small old 37 gig raptor, with 2 other partitioned drives for movies, music etc.
I have just purchased a Samsung F3 1T drive, I would like to create a partition so I can install win7 and use the rest for storage, can you tell me the best way to achieve this please, want a clean install so not interested in creating a image of raptor,I will be formatting the raptor and putting Mrs photos on it.

Do I connect the F1, format, partition, disconnect, then disconnect the raptor, reconnect F1, then fresh install of Windows, then reconnect raptor and format for storage?

Silly question I know! But your help is appreciated.

Cheers
 
Thanks guys,

One more question, because my raptor was so small I used to install games on a separate hard drive, I assume there is no benefit in doing that now, especially seeing as the F1 is my fastest drive.

My system:
Q6600 @ 3.2
Asus P5KE
4 gigs ram ( decent stuff)
XFI 4890 1gig
Seagate Barcuda 500gig hd
320 hd ( God knows make)
Raptor 37 gig
Asus dg sound card

Sorry for the lame questions:)
