Hi, it is me (again) with something that I find particularly odd.
I bought an Asus N550JV-DB72T, it comes with a 1TB HDD (5400 RPM) in two partition.
■ -1: Windows (C: ) 340GB;
■ -2: Storage (D: ) 560GB.
I bought a -N550JV HDD Caddy- that will replace the CD-ROM-
- I will remove the HDD from the Laptop(notebook) and put it in the HDD Caddy.
■ -Next, I will take my SSD (Adata SX600 -256GB- ) and put it where the HDD was (for heat and secure)
(Maybe it is not a good idead? Should I leave the HDD where it is or it has no impact?)
-This is where I need professionals:
-I heard that the Activation is imbued within the BIOS of the machine.
-Someone told me to use ASUS AI RECOVERY and put it in a USB stick
-Using the USB stick with the recovery to install the OS on the New SSD.
-Is the old Windows going to be deleted from the HDD, renamed to Windows.old or stay as it is?
-What I'm wondering is how the Activation key can be on 2 hdd/ssd at the same time in the same laptop?
-Should I deactivate the old key (somehow) then use the USB stick and install the OS on the SSD?
I have so many questions on how this works...
P.S: I do not want to use a CD to install Windows, unless it is the only way.
