Looking to make new (added) m.2 drive "C" with OS and make the existing 1TB drive "D".


What is the best way to accomlish this?  ie, getting OS on new m.2 C drive.

 

Would it be possible to install new m.2 drive and temporarily unplug the 1TB drive and then use ALT F10 on startup to load clean windows 10?  

 

Or take a more traditional approach.

Create Windows install thumb drive

Disconnect 1TB drive

Install m.2

Load windows on M.2 from thumb

Once all working, re install the 1TB and format it?

 

One advantage would be lack of bloatware, but will all the drivers be found?    Will I be missing any critical Acer software?  

 

Open to suggestions.  Lots of great knowledge on this board.


Thanks,

 

Pete
