I've had legacy ever since I installed Windows 8.1 and then upgraded to Windows 10 for a few years, but was wondering if the switch from legacy to uefi is even worth it.
My system is running just fine in the legacy mode, and I've always had a graphical user interface whenever going into the BIOS. I know legacy does not support drives larger than 2TB, but none of my internal drives are larger than that. I also know UEFI boots faster than legacy, but with the videos that I saw and with windows being on an SSD, the boot time might only be 2-6 seconds faster.
Also, users have been saying that UEFI is more secure as it supports secure boot, but with Windows 10 receiving better security updates and anti-viruses becoming more advanced, is it even worth it?
So should I convert my drive from MBR to GPT and use UEFI, or just continue using legacy until I build another computer or do a major upgrade such as going to Ryzen?
