Hard Drive Transfers: Snake Needs Your Guidance

Solid Snake · 12-09-2014, 08:28 PM

So your Friendly Neighborhood Snake who y'all respect and admire and privately adore is upgrading his PC, because that's what Snake's doin', and now his PC is going to be super-turbo-ultra charged to play games like Dragon Age: Inquisition in the most aesthetically sensual manner possible.

Radeon R9 290 be all like "Welcome to the PC Master Race Snake, you never chillin' with them console peasants again [*well actually just until Uncharted 4 comes out...]"

Snake's also getting a 3TB Hard Drive because aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwww yeah an immense library of imminently accessible content is the way to be, but now there's an issue.

The issue is simple: Snake's keeping the old 500 GB hard drive with Windows but he wants to move all Steam and Origin related content from the old drive to the new. Like we're gonna have a C drive and a D drive intertwined up in this business, but lots of content on that C drive needs to make a clean break. But not all the content! Documents and iTunes and even GOG.com content is probably staying with the OG HDD.

But, how precisely should this be done? How to ensure that Snake doesn't lose his precious save data? We're talking hundreds of hours of content that simply can't be lost unless you want to make Snake cry.

Is there some sort of guide on the Interwebs to assist folks with this process? Or, better yet, are you Human enough to assist Solid effin' Snake with incredible advice? Are you?

ARE YOU?!?!?!?!?
