      Yes in fact I have, How To Use A Laptop Drive In Another Laptop
      ua-cam.com/video/x77_flwgSqo/v-deo.html however if you insert a boot drive into a computer without formatting it is not easy to browse the files, so move over them eventually and format and put them back like advised.

    Do I have to reformat old ssd that has already been formatted on windows 10? Or is the formatted ssd compatible with both windows 10 and 11. For example I have an ssd just for steam games, can I plug into my laptop that’s on windows 10 and then my pc that’s on windows 11 and vice versa or do I have to reformat it?

    • @GMODISM
      @GMODISM  Рік тому

      Its compatible but has to be cleaned, performing a quick format does remove all files so it's clean to be filled again.
