   Hi Paul,   
      
   That is what I want to do, but I'm not sure how to do it gracefully.   
      
   I don't need (nor want) the older Windows 10s on HDD1 & HDD2.   
       
      
   I'd be perfectly happy to eliminate the two old Win10 OS giblets!   
       
      
   I booted to Grub and then Linjux to run Carlos' suggested bootinfoscript.   
      
       
      
   This script proved:   
   o HDD3: The only working Windows is on sda (WD10EZEX)   
   o HDD2: Grub & Ubuntu (17.10) is on sdb (TOSHIBA_HDWD110)   
   o HDD1: Nothing of use (other than data) is on sdc (WD10EFRX)   
       
      
   That script "thinks" that Windows is "working" on all 3 HDDs.   
      
   But the HDD1 & HDD2 Windows are both long gone, never to be recovered.   
   And I don't care about the Ubuntu since I'll install Ubuntu 18.10 on HDD3.   
   And, I don't care about the Grub on sda2 either.   
      
   The question is what's the most graceful way to clear the OS giblets?   
   Do I simply wipe out C:\Windows on HDD2 (sdb) and HDD1 (sdc)?   
   (Is it _that_ easy? Or will that open a new can of worms?)
