Hi,
I managed to buy a second hand Samsung SM951 M.2 SSD,which was used only for a couple of weeks. The previous owner did not tell me,if it was filled with data or not.
My plan is to install a fresh new Windows 10 Pro via USB stick ,using this guide. At that part,when I should choose Drive0 (my SSD),it probably will not say that this is an unallocated space,because I am 100% sure that it is filled with some files .
My real question is: during this period,what shall I choose?
a) As in the video,choose New and let the Windows installer do his job?
b) Or shall I choose Format? Some says that Formating a SSD is not a good idea,especially before an installation.
Any good tip would be nice!
Thank you.
