After we send the files from one place to another for example from my internal storage space in my laptop to an external hard drive can I then delete the original files from my directory? Please let me know as I dont see the point of having the same files again
@@marco7838 Once you have copied the files to you external hard drive, you can delete the original files. They are not linked so the copied files will not be affected.
Thanks for posting this. I plan on buying an external HD. I'm getting warnings now that my internal drive is maxing out. I was wondering what the transfer process was. You explained it perfectly.
I wanted a quick and easy way to transfer my photos from my photography to my very first external hard drive. I’m so glad I found this because now I know how to do it! Thnx for making it quick and simple!
After watching other people explain how to transfer files into a hard drive and still not understanding. You made it so simple great video thank you very much
Amazing! You provided a simple explanation for a process that is so . . . simple - while other contributors want to dazzle viewers with their use of tech terms or a mind-bending lecture on digital technology. Thank you for having the genius to explain something that is so simple, in a way that does not make it sound difficult.

@@marco7838 I believe you can delete the files so you can save storage on your internal. However, if the drive gets corrupted or damaged in the future then it will be lost forever since that's the only copy you have. If the files are too important, I advise that you don't delete it so you still have it on different locations, just in case. :)))
Thank you for the amazing tutorial. Now that the files are on the external hard drive, can I delete the files on my computer to free up space? Please advise.
So I have been saving files from my laptop to an external hard drive. Now six months have gone by, how do I add/save, update, new things that have been added from already existing files? I hope this makes sense.
So I am kind of curious because I ran into an issue recently were my main storage on my PC does not have enough space on it to install an update for my GPU drivers. Could I possibly shift all my GPU driver installation folders to an external hard drive that is connected to my PC without issue or would it cause my GPU to be nonfunctional if I shifted it?
yah but now i cant play the video from my ssd says file Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file.?!?!?!

I need to specifically move my Xbox Captures folder to save space on my drive, but unfortunately, in order to move it I need to drag and drop but when you drag and drop it copies, not moves as seen here in the video. Is there a way to fix this?
If a device isn't automatically detected, you can usually find it through the "file explorer". Sometimes this is located on the bottom taskbar. If not click on the Windows icon, and type in "file explorer" into the search box, and once it opens, on the left hand side, you should see all your folders and devices listed.

How do you select multiple files at the same time to transfer? To make the process quicker?
Use EaseUS Partition Master
I believe holding down shift and using the arrow keys should work
you hold ctrl and click then drag it to ur harddrive
can we backup the files which are already in hard drive ????
