Good day everyone
The reason why I want to install Windows 10 on each of my two hard disks is because the Win 10 on my first disk is for my job, where I need to install software provided by my employer. The second Wind 10 on my second hard disk is for my personal use, where I would install different software. At this moment the computer has the two hard disks buy only the first one has Windows 10. On my second hard disk I reserved the first two partitions for the MSR (16 MB) and Win10 (90GB). The space is there but nothing is installed yet on those two partitions. The rest of space on my second drive is occupied by data.
The computer is UEFI and both hard disks are using the GPT partitioning scheme.
Disk 1
EFI partition 260 MB
Microsoft reserved partition 16 MB
Windows 10 90 GB
Data The rest of the space
Disk 2
space reserved for Microsoft reserved partition 16 MB
space reserved for Windows 10 90 GB
Data The rest of the space
My question is how can I install the second Win 10 on my second hard drive? I read something about Sysprep but so far I have no clear understanding how Sysprep works.
Thanks in advance
I bought a g750jw-db71 and am loving it. I have purchased a second hard drive and wish to take advantage of the second hard drive bay. I want to have, as the title stated, two hard drives and two different operating systems.
I would like to have instructions just to ease my mind. From what I have gathered it is as simple as removing my old hard drive and placing my new hard drive in the first hard drive bay. Install Linux and place it back into the second slot. Then replace my old hard drive and enjoy two different operating systems by switching which boots first in the BIOS. (i have disabled secure boot)
My fear is that I will mess something up on the old hard drive or the BIOS.
Note: I do not wish to ghost anything or move files from my old hard drive. I am also not interested in dual booting on the same hard drive. I plan on using my second hard drive for learning Linux and I plan on messing that partition up through the wonderful process of learning.
Thank you for any help you give.
Edit: I have also read something about how UEFI requires GPT. If I format the disk using GPT will this cause any problems with Linux?
