    If they are both the same size then just save everything on yuor other hard drive. If your drive E is bigger in size than you might want to use something like Norton Ghost to make an image of your current hard drive and transfer it to the other one.

    What is drive E ?? is it a partition on the one hdd or do you have two physical hdd's in their own bays
    If you have partitioned a single hdd you have two options you can either redistribute the free space of E and give it to C to make C drive larger or move any data from c drive to E and use E as data storage only


    If E drive is a larger hdd and by quite a margin just ghost the main drive to it and use the original hdd as backup in case of virus or such like
