Hello everyone,
I am considering in ordering a custom build laptop
with 2 hard drives on board ;one ssd for boot disc and one hybrid ssd (mechanic with nand flash) for storage purposes.
And in order to achieve all that, I must sacrifice the optical bay,meaning no dvd/bd rom.
Luckily,I have a purchased windows 7 disc on me ,and to cut the budget down I `m thinking in ordering the laptop with no OS.
Now I have located this thread,http://
and the replies there do clarifiy things very well , but my main concern is
what can I do,If there is no ''boot from usb'' option in the bios?
( I `ve read some reviews based on older models from the same seller and that happens to be the case in some...)
Could I use one of the 2 hard drives instead?
I also have a usb sata docking station that supports 2,5'' hd`s and my old laptop.
Or maybe try to use a usb external dvd rom instead?
Plus I am a complete noob at dos commands...
thanks for reading & waiting for your opinions
