Best way to transfer mods to a new drive.
I have my game installed on my HDD but want to move it over to my NVMe. What is the best way to transfer everything? I am using Mod Organizer 2.2.2.1. Thank you

Since you're using MO2, it's kinda straightforward with that. Start first by creating a new instance, but have it be present on your NVMe instead. This is shown in the panel, where you can configure the target location. This should create one root folder (with the instance name) and various child stories inside that on your NVMe. Then close MO2. After that, simply move all child folders of your old instance on HDD to the newly created one on NVMe. That's all what you have to do.

Something worth to mention: NVMe disks are fairly costly and using that for managing mods is something that I don't encourage. It's not designed to have a lot writes (wears out easily then). Don't you have a SSD you can use? I use a NVMe for my OS and SSD for games/mods.

MO2 is capable to put your mods in the game directory at its own, if you have configured it right.
