Hello,

My hard disk is starting to run very slow, so I'd like to boot my PC onto my ssd.

Would it be possible to change the main partition to put it on my ssd?

Thank you for your time

    So i hit delete on all disk 1 partitions, not format right?

    And what about the disk 0, should i delete to make sure it is not booting on instead of the ssd?

    Disk 0 is the 1TB HDD and Disk 1 is the 120GB SSD, you need to delete all partitions on whichever drive you want to install Windows onto.

    In the CrystalDiskInfo tool it is the 1TB HDD that was indicated as failing, so it would be best to re-install Windows on the 120GB SSD

    The whole disk will then be marked as Unallocated Space', select that and click 'Next' to begin the installation.

    Lecteur = disk

    Disque dur = hard drive
