No, a fresh installation doesn't automatically delete files from your other hard drive. It only affects the data on the new system you're installing.

Make sure all your data stays safe on different drives—only then will it stay intact.

Yes, I understand. With Windows updates you can choose which partition to use, provided you don’t install it on any other hard drive besides the one you select, and you won’t lose your files from any other HDD.

I understand it isn't a partition since I placed it there.

Upgrade process ensures no loss of information. Choose to retain personal files and settings. A clean installation means all data on the specific drive will be erased.
