I don't want to bother with the 60 GB drive once I have the replacement installed. I don't know how many bays and stuff I have for this. Trying to keep it simple.

What does the Windows clean install on the new SSD do to the data I have on the existing HDD? Anything?

EDIT: To clarify, my PC has an SSD for my system/Windows install. It also has an HDD for data - music, pictures, documents, whatever. And then I have external drives for backups, media, etc.
