Transfer required files to external storage. Clear all data from your current drive. Prepare for formatting a solid-state drive without an operating system.

You might want to set up Windows 10 Preview if you don’t intend to rely on it as your primary operating system. It’s a great way to test changes before committing to the full version. Alternatively, you can try lightweight alternatives like Zorin on a USB drive—this lets you format without needing an OS, though the formatting options are limited to the specific drive. Understanding these choices helps you decide based on your needs.

It's almost identical to what you found at http://zorin-os.com. Zorin resembles Windows more due to its interface, and I've tried both Ubuntu 14 (for school) and Zorin 9 (for home).

I agree, since I plan to buy the official version once it's fully available. I already own a legal copy of Windows 7 that I was considering switching to, but I can't return to Windows 7 after testing version 10.

You can format HDDs and SSDs without an operating system using tools in your BIOS or UEFI settings. After formatting, you can install Windows 10 via a USB drive or an external hard drive.

It is highly advised to avoid Windows 10 at this time. The system lacks proper optimization.

You intend to set up Windows 10 on "Device 1" (such as Device 1). Most installers require formatting the specified device, so just format everything else and install on the final drive. REMEMBER: The statement about Windows 10 being a tech preview only means it isn’t fully ready for use—think of it like a prototype. You’d prefer the F-15C instead, which performs better in real conditions.

I've been using it since its early release and haven't encountered any issues.
