I just got my new laptop today. It's the Asus rog g752vs, and I ordered one without an M.2 drive, as I already have a Samsung 950 pro 256gb M.2 drive I want to put in it.
I plan on installing the drive today, then reinstalling windows onto it. What's the best way to do this? Should I use data migration, or should I do a fresh install?
If I am going to reinstall, I don't see my windows 10 license number. Someone in an earlier thread mentioned that the key is buried in the bios, and windows 10 will automatically find it. Is this magic true?
If I am going to reinstall windows onto the M.2 drive, can I wipe out all the data, including recovery partition, from the existing HDD? What is the point of the recovery drive anyways? Never had a laptop, always desktops where I install windows, and no recovery partition is ever used.
Anyways, can someone give me a quick tutorial on what is the best procedure. Thank you very much in advance.
