Need #computer advice right now.
The #SSD drive which runs my Windows desktop died & I can no longer #boot (no bios found & it fails SMART).
2nd #HDD hard drive passes #SMART. Need to pay someone to install new SSD drive and Windows. OEM Windows license means $ for another license.
I have a #MacriumReflect image of all the partitions, but it is an image, not a clone. I don't think I can reinstall Windows that way. Would also like to recover any SSD data not backed up to the image which is 1 month old
Above all, I want nothing to impact the 2nd HDD drive which is where the bulk of my data is stored. I have these files backed up through Thursday. Really really don't want to have to reinstall apps, browser extensions but seems inevitable
Question: What do I need to tell the computer tech specifically to do, and to avoid doing?
