    How to Install Win 10 x64, Retail on SSD Disk


    I have Win 10 x64 Retail installed on my hard drive and I want to install it on SSD disk.
    I have Windows 10 as an iso file that I downloaded from a Microsoft site.

    How can I do this?

    And would there be any problems with the installation?
    Thank you for your help.


    Best regards.

    :)

    Win 10 clean install question

    This is what I would do:
    • Shrink the hard drive partition until it's small enough to fit on the SSD.
    • Clone the Windows 8.1 setup to the SSD.
    • Boot off the SSD and make sure that Windows 8.1 is happy (i.e., no complaints about activation).
    • Upgrade to Windows 10 on the SSD.
    This way, you know that Windows 8.1 has a valid setup on the SSD before doing anything else. Plus, the Windows 10 upgrade will be processed much faster on the SSD. Finally, you still have the hard drive setup to fall back to if anything goes wrong.

    How to Install Win 10 x64, Retail on SSD Disk

    My first SSD

    Hey guys. I am formating and installing Win 7 on my first SSD, in a new system I bought. Are there any special steps I need to take before formating the disk via the Win 7 DVD and installing Win 7 on it?

    I will be keeping it as 1 partition, where I will be installing Windows on it together with any other programs (games mostly).
