Do I need a DVD Drive to install windows on a custom PC build.

Andrew Peskett · Jan 13, 2015

Hey guys, I am building my own pc, and the case I wanted to use doesn't have a place for a dvd drive, so I am presuming I need to install windows on a usb? If so, how do I go about this?!

It's possible to install from a usb thumb drive (provided it's large enough to hold windows install files) or from a usb external drive. I've never actually done it from usb so unfortunately my advice is limited. Hopefully this info from microsoft helps.
