Foamy T. Squirrel Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Let's place bets. I'm not happy with the Ubuntu upgrades, but at least they're safe. If I jump up my PC systems to 10, then I will spend hours constantly updating with a huge pile of security updates every Tuesday for the rest of my life. Sell a product when it's fucking finished. I'm old school. I mean, would you buy a car that's not finished? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StnCld316 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I just had a spare Hard Drive so I pulled my drive with Windows 7 on it out and put in the spare then installed the Windows 10 but not everyone keeps a spare drive on hand so they have to repartition their drive so it will dual boot to either Windows 7 or Windows 10 whichever they prefer to use at the time of starting up the computer. I have never had much luck dual booting a drive so I bought a spare one for that purpose when something new comes along I can try it without affecting my previous files plus I don't really like formatting my drive each and every time I try something new. To much formatting will only give your hard drives bad sectors. Using a spare HD as you did is a good way to run the WTP. No risk to your existing OS setup. But, StnCld316, I had to chuckle at your last sentence...the one about bad sectors. http://blog.gobbler.com/2012/07/hard-drive-myth-bad-sectors-and-reformatting/ I used to format every time I tried new OS's then formatted to go back to others and over time I have developed bad sectors and have had to replace the drives, so that's when I chose just to have an extra hard drive on hand for that purpose. Never had any more of them since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
