Looks like I found a spare HDD connected to my desktop. It was there since some time and I forgot about it. It is lying as unallocated space.
I want to know how to use it with the already in-use HDD where I have Ubuntu. It had dual boot Windows 10 which got corrupted during a recent update. I am thinking of install Windows 10 in this spare 500 GB HDD. When I inserted the Windows 10 USB, it is shown as drive 1 while the existing HDD is shown as drive 0 .
Do you think that I should use this disk as GPT ? If yes, how do I do the partition ? I haven't done such things in a while. So GPT, dynamic disk etc sounds alien to me at this point.
It will be great if someone can tell me how I should proceed. If possible, without messing up the data in the first HDD, which is MBR.
Kindly let me know if you need any more info. Thanks.
