Hard Drive needs replacing, decision time - Page 2

Only reason I didn't recommend cloning is because Windows gets junked up after awhile, and the re-install itself will help with that a bit. Plus, you basically can't fuck up and lose your data if you've only got the new drive plugged in.

But yeah, cloning the drive is pretty easy and would most likely save you time, if you wanna do it.

If ~~Windows~~ your computer is getting "junked up" over time, you are probably doing something wrong.

In my experience, its hard to not do something wrong, even if you know what you are doing
