I just got a new pc that came with win 10 installed. I am not a big fan of win10 in its current state so I would like dual OS with win7pro. I have a 256gb ssd currently. How much would I need to partition to install win7 pro?
 
Solution
depends on how much you want to store on the os part of the ssd. you will need at least 32gb for the windows 7 partition just for the os/swap file+room to spare so you don't get low disk space remaining warning non stop. if your going to use windows 7 more I would give it half the drive at least. just depends on what your plans are.
