Windows 10: How should I make two partitions with the Win 10 installer pendrive?

Hi all,

I plan to buy a Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD, and I want to make two partitions on it at the drive selection screen of the OS installer like this:
D: round 800,0GB
C: full size which remains after the OS related (EFI-system, Recovery, MSR) partitions created (~130GB according to the 931,51GB usable space of the 1TB drive)
I have found a >>video<<, which suggests the following steps:
1. "New" - size: 134666MB (131,51GB) - "Apply"
Then the 3 OS related (EFI-system, Recovery, MSR), 1 Primary and a round 800GB unallocated partition will be created.
2. Click on the unallocated partition - "New" - size: full size that the installer offers - "Apply"
3. Format the bigger primary partition (I think it's optional, and can be done after OS installation via Disk Management)
4. Click on the smaller primary partition - "Next"

It seems to be absolutely fine for me, but on the msi forum, a comprehent member said and suggested the following:
"It is recommended to have "personal" partitions after the boot loader, you have to create it at the "end" of the drive (I known it is not physical end because it is a SSD, only logical).
That is why I suggested:
1. "New" - size: 134666MB (131,51GB) - "Apply"
Then the 3 OS related (EFI-system, Recovery, MSR), 1 Primary and a round 800GB unallocated partition will be created.
2. Click on the unallocated partition - "New" - size: full size that the installer offers - "Apply"
3. Click on the smaller primary partition - "Delete"
Then this partition will be unallocated.
4. Click on the smaller primary partition again - "Next"
Doing that, installer will create all required partitions for OS in the 1rst part of the SSD."

Which method should I do to make the best optimal way?
Thanks,

:)

 

W7 Hard drive partition issue

to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

- press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
- diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
- list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
- select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
- clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
- create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
- exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
- click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that
