    Thanks a lot Oussebon. So here I am, on my newly installed Windows 10, with my 250GB SSD, and everything seems smooth as a smooth cucumber. I guess now I'd just like to ask if there's some general good practice rules I should follow? Should I avoid storing documents on the SSD? Anything I...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Question about Windows 10 boot-SSD

    But I thought having your OS on the SSD makes it start quicker? How will Photoshop and stuff run better if I just have an SSD plugged in, acting like a 2nd drive? Or do I install stuff on there.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Question about Windows 10 boot-SSD

    I know this might sound silly. But if I bought an SSD to stick in my PC; Would I need to buy any wires? Sata etc? How difficult will it be to move over my operating system?

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Question about Windows 10 boot-SSD

    I've never actually re-installed Windows. I guess I will do that then. Worth a shot. I don't have an SSD. If I bought one would it be relatively easy to move over the OS? I have 1x 1TB HDD with Windows 10 on. (and everything else) I really appreciate your help! Thank you.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Question about Windows 10 boot-SSD

    I've always had 1x HDD. Games, operating system, etc. I'm buying a new PC and I'm moving over my GFX card and dimms, but I want to try the 'operating system being booted on its own SSD' thing. If I purchase the below config, will that do the trick? (I'm assuming the operating system will be...
