Hello guys,

 

This is the first time that I will install Windows on my new build. I have my ISO file and my USB.

 

Both my SSD and HDD are plugged. Now, what should I do ?

 

Install Windows on the SSD drive and then add my HDD as a new volume for storage ?

 

Thank you for the help :-)

Yes?

If you're asking about how to install just use a tool called Rufus to 'burn' the iso to the usb to make a bootable media and plug it in. Then turn on legacy boot in the bios and boot from the usb, windows will walk you through the rest. Make sure the ssd is in ntfs or raw format.
