If you install fresh, no need initialize. The installation will auto initialize it for you.When you add any disk to an existing windows, need to initialize first time only.

QUOTE(zemega @ Nov 13 2020, 10:44 PM) Keep the old drivers backup for now. It's still possible to track down most of the drivers from the component manufacturers website. Satellite L850 pskdla 0cc00rYou might need to ask other forums or Reddit on how to get the drivers for your particular laptop. What's the model number anyway? |

QUOTE(hc7840 @ Nov 13 2020, 10:35 PM) Ssd smaller. Intend to keep old hdd as it is. If ssd got problem can Pasang balik. Already got two external hdd to backup files. win10 dem flexible one no worriesOther reason I want fresh install is because I don’t have the usb connector adaptor. Lol I read Can be difficult to fresh install that way also because windows don’t let you install another system when you are using it. Chebye toshiba no support my 8yo model anymore. Cannot find on their website. Will try the tape method also ![]() |

You're going to have to take a leap of faith and hope everything works in Windows 10. Else you really have to hunt the drivers one by one. |

If using legacy mode, just have to make sure your SATA controller is running in AHCI mode to get the most out of the SSD in terms of performance. Cheers TS |

QUOTE(speedy3210 @ Nov 14 2020, 08:48 AM) UEFI option has to be enabled from the BIOS side. But then again, you will have to reinstall.... hahaha I don’t see uefi option in bios setup, no secure boot option but it has option for fast boot. not much of a problem as you hv just finished installing without much app in it. If using legacy mode, just have to make sure your SATA controller is running in AHCI mode to get the most out of the SSD in terms of performance. Cheers TS Samsung magician say is running ahci. So should be good? I guess it just means my mother board don’t support uefi, and I have been using legacy for years. Should not make too much of a difference? |

When install windows 10 no show uefi or show secure boot is lock Last I checked, my motherboard support uefi leh. Maybe is because I didn’t update the latest bios driver (there is a bios update on toshiba website). But then people say computer no problem don’t anyhow go flash bios, later become brick. I guess for normal usage, legacy bios or uefi should not make any difference. Plus has been using it for past 8 years also no problem. |
