Installing Windows 7 onto SSD in a custom build PC
I’ve recently purchased a custom built PC from a company and I’ve included in it an SSD for the operating system and programs, and a 1TB HDD for storage both are brand new with no data installed.
Once I receive the PC I will be installing my own copy of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. I’ve read on a number of forums that I need to unplug the HDD before completing the clean install of Windows 7 onto the SSD otherwise the boot partition will install onto the HDD if I keep it plugged in. I can’t find any user guides/videos tutorials for this situation so would appreciate it if someone could confirm if it’s best to disconnect the HDD as I don’t want to start taking the side of the case and unplugging the HDD if it’s not required.
Thanks to anyone who can help with this.
