So I use win 7 from msdn (sp1) for a long time now, with daz loader, and always made sure to disable uefi to setup my ssd as mbr before formatting. Now that im buying a new pc, i wanted to change the drives (ssd & hdd), so I would like to the the following: disable UEFI again -> after loading the win7 disc, i will setup the ssd to run as mbr (500GB ssd samsung) which will run the Win7 OS, and the 4TB hdd as GPT (for games and stuff). will that work, or do i need both disks to be configured as mbr to install daz? daz says that you need mbr for the disk that you install the os on, so because my ssd is only 500gb there is no reason for the mbr not to work. but the hdd is 4tb, thus requires me to set it up as gpt or two 2tb mbr (i dont want 2 2tb drives), so is it ok if i setup the 4tb as gpt while the 500gb ssd is mbr at the same format operation? also, will it work if i buy a M2 950/960 ssd? (mbr with win7)? thanks from advance.
Doesnt matter if the second hdd is MBR or GPT, it will still work. And yes, you can use the M.2 without any trouble.
