    Windows 10 Anniversary update for 32GB eMMC budget laptops?

    I have a NUC with i5 processor Bought with 2G Ram and 32G emmc. I had no problem with upgrading to 128G and 4G. I copied the installed emmc using a usb reader to a

    and samsungs proprietory program to copy installed emmc to samsung then swapped in new hdd no worries afert that

    Perhaps ditching your 32G emmc is an answer?

    Les Tokar, over at TheSSDReview.com does a great job of keeping up with new developments in this space. Not surprisingly, he's got reviews of the new Samsung devices up and ready for perusal. I know what I'm buying for my next build, for sure!

    How difficult is it to get Windows 10 to boot from an M2 SSD? I've read a bunch of posting that all include a lengthy # steps required to tweak BIOS settings, deal with UEFI mode, require using a Win10 USB boot device, etc. Apparently only the most recent versions of Win10 contain drivers that support booting from an M2 device - but is the really true?

    Nothing more dificult than with SATA SSD or HDD. I also cloned my SATA SSD to Samsung 960 evo few month ago without problems although there's newer driver on Samsung's site. Windows were RS2 at the time.
    970 doesn't seem to be much faster than 960.

    Thanks - good to know. My system has a 950 Pro SSD boot drive now, but my motherboard (Asus P8-Z77) does not support M2 boot. I'm prepared to get a new Asus board & CPU, but really don't want to start with a Windows clean install. Cloning the 950 ==> M2 970 is what I'd like to do.

    Oh? So are you saying a clean install is the only way to get M2 boot support?

    If you are building a new system it will require a whole host of new drivers and such. So you may run into issues.

    Was more pointing to the fact he is getting a new motherboard/cpu, which will mean a different set of drivers. Can be done, but may run into quite a few issues.
