Ideal for those looking to upgrade or replace their current internal drive, this hard disk drive is a practical and efficient solution for expanding storage capacity.

These drives with pre-installed operating systems can save you from installing on the wrong drive (like your current boot drive) as long as you replace your current boot drive with this drive, it will make any/all changes to the new boot drive.

If you select an external drive enclosure or use a USB to sata cable, just plug it in and boot from it. No danger to your existing boot drive. Message me for questions on this.
