Hi,

I bought this laptop about 2 years ago and selected the SSD to be my C:/ drive upon installation but I've now decided that I'd like to change things so that the HDD becomes my C:/ drive, though I can't figure out how to do this, I tried a complete factory reset but wasn't given the option to change which drive was the C:/ Drive, any help would be appreciated!

Thank you in advance

Factory reset will set it up like it was when new, with Windows on the SSD. Get a Windows media disk, run the setup, during setup go to advanced disk options, delete the partitions on the disk, select the drive you want Windows installed on, install it.

I don't suggest doing this as you could run into issues, and then you will have no restore partition to go back to default setup.
