SSD Installation along HDD

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

   Vanquish 7.  Added an SSD where I would like to install Windows for faster boot up, and leave all programs on the HDD.   I was able to add it physically and I could see it on the BIOS and through the existing Windows 10 installed.   Questions:

1 - Is it possible to install a fresh instance of Windows 10 and NOT have to reinstall all the apps in the existing HDD disk?  How?

2 - My installation is failing with an error telling me it could not be completed.  I left the HDD installed the at the end of the data cable and used another plug in the existing cable.  As such, HDD appears as drive 0 and the new SDD appears as drive 1.   Should I reverse the order of the cable connects so that the SDD appears as the last connection on the cable?
