I have to buy a new hard drive, so will I be able to reinstall all the games I have purchased?

Of course you can.

Just transfer them to the new hard drive.

You CAN reinstall, but you might find it easier to simply clone your current drive. This copies everything from one drive to another exactly... every single bit and byte.

Thanks for the replies.
I can't really clone my hard drive because I have to reinstall Windws

You don't need to clone anything. Just copy over your games folder after installing windows and do a Scan& Import.

You can reinstall any software you have the installers for. What is your real question - what do you think will be the problem?

Hopefully it's a 2 TB SSD. 32 MB RAM is advisable. A robust graphics engine is also a help. The, sim away!

Two terabytes? That's small.

Enough for games that profit from a SSD. Most games hardly reach 50GB anyway.
And all older games are perfectly happy on a hard drive.
Currently I have about 70 games installed, not including my ScummVM and DosBOX collection.

We said 2 TB, NOT GB for a SSD. BIG diff. A TB is 1,000 GB. So, our SSD is 2,000 GB. QED.

I know the difference. As I said, two terabytes is small.

That's not what the installer said. The installer was more than proud of it's size.
