RE: ANTEC ISK 300-65 HTPC A8-3820 - MrKay - 2012-05-09 eskro what's the first thing i do when i finish my build. Do i enable AHCI in my BIOS first then go in to bios again then setup boot form usb then install windows 7 then format the ssd in windows 7 before the windows 7 install finishes Should i follow this video for Parted Magic for secure erase your solid state drive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_g55-jdHAK4 RE: ANTEC ISK 300-65 HTPC A8-3820 - MrKay - 2012-05-09 Some people who have used parted magic for secure erase there solid state drive now can't update there firmware. So am thinking if i should use this method. Plus if i use the parted magic will that delate my firmware that i have allready RE: ANTEC ISK 300-65 HTPC A8-3820 - eskro - 2012-05-09 1st thing to do once your build is put together, is to follow my SSD optimization guide. then, install your O/S then, install your needed drivers and apps RE: ANTEC ISK 300-65 HTPC A8-3820 - Beer40oz - 2012-05-09 No problems with parted magic for me.... MrKay I think you are thinking too much about it.... RE: ANTEC ISK 300-65 HTPC A8-3820 - eskro - 2012-05-09 (2012-05-09, 02:39)Beer40oz Wrote: No problems with parted magic for me....

Do i use boot from usb with parted magic on it like how i will do windows 7 from usb once i finish the build. or can i use it by putting the ssd in a enclosure and go to my laptop that has all ready windows on it and do it like that (2012-05-09, 02:39)Beer40oz Wrote: No problems with parted magic for me....
