Windows 10: What are the steps to Installing Windows 10 on a Seagate Hybrid 2TB HD with SSHD;

What are the specific steps for a new Winddows 10 install on a Hybrid 2 TB HD with 256 GB SSHD? What files should be loaded into the SSHD? And when in the process?


Original HD is still functioning but due to upgrade from Win 7 Win 8, Win 8.1 and Win 10 the HD has multiple copies of many files scattered through many and partially duplicateddirectories. A PITA but managable until the May 5, 2018 Windows 10 update renamed by User directory by adding tripple 000 and creating a new users directory with the original User name, but with none of the original files. Created major problems with many programs, Outlook, Quicken, and OneDrive being the ones I use the most.


Have managed work arounds for Outlook and Quicken but OneDrive still is resisting.


Long story short, I decided the best way to solve the issue was to start with a clean Windows 10 install. Have a Windows CD and a new Seagate 2TB HD hybrid drive with SSHD but am unsure about how best to do the new install.


Can anyone help?

Seagate BarraCuda vs. FireCuda SSHD for storage

Hi,

I want a 2.5" hard drive with more capacity and I found the Seagate hard drives.

But, which one is better for storage?, the price difference is little.

• Seagate 2TB BarraCuda 2.5" $86.99
• Seagate 2TB FireCuda Gaming SSHD 2.5" $99.99

I know that the FireCuda has 8GB built in but, does it matter for storage purposes?.

How to change Windows 10 OS from 500 Gb HDD to 1TB SSHD (hybrid driver)

Hello,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

As per the issue description you are willing to move your Windows 10 OS from 500 Gb HDD to 1TB SSHD (hybrid driver).

I want to inform you that if you will move the OS from 500 Gb HDD to 1TB SSHD (hybrid driver) then there might be a chance that you will face activation issue. If you have the product key for Windows 10 then you may go ahead. Otherwise you might need to
get in touch with the manufacturer for the confirmation of the same.

However, you may follow the steps provided by Andre Da Costa in the thread mentioned below. Though the thread deals with Windows 8 but steps holds good for Windows 10 too.
